The United States of America is a large country with a remarkably diverse tourism offer. Dazzled by an endless array of attractions, first-time visitors often report that “everything looks like in the movies” – not really a surprise considering that in terms of mass media, movie and TV productions the country exerts a strong cultural influence throughout the world. Icons like the Empire State Building in New York, the White House in Washington D.C. or Sunset Boulevard in California likely have appeared in some scene that already has been watched by millions around the globe. And of course, there are the modern skylines dotted with skyscrapers, the wide endless highways lined with fast-food restaurants as well as an ever-present pop culture, reflected in music, fashion and lifestyles that are often adapted beyond the US.

In contrast to the glitz and glamour of the big cities, the United States is also a country of magnificent national parks, the great outdoors and charming small towns. While distinct in flavor, both the East coast and West coast are hubs for trends that shape modern society while the Midwestern heartland is more down to earth and connected to traditional values. Whatever you are looking for…you are sure to find it in one of the fifty states of the Union.
