In Part 1 and Part 2 of this series, we traveled hundreds of miles over the route known as “The Loneliest Road in America” and experienced the vast, wide-open spaces and long distances between towns for which it’s famous. Highway 50 is one of the country’s great road trips, as it spans the continent from Maryland to California. Parts of it trace the route of the old Lincoln Highway.

Michigan State

When you think of relaxing beaches and beautiful sceneries, Michigan might not be the first place in the world — or even in the United States — that jumps to mind.

It's one of the perfect places to gaze at the stars, chill on the beach, and experience nature at its best, such as Isle Royale, a remote national park in the Midwest bursting with adventure.

England's capital city stands out as one of the most visited places in the world, at least for tourism. In 2023, it saw over 20 million visitors (via Statista) crowd in, with the nearly 9 million people who call it home.
