The U.S. is a big country with many incredible landmarks you can visit. Some of them are popular and always crowded, while the others are underrated and often skipped—but we believe they don’t deserve that. Here are three of our favorite underrated landmarks in the States.

White Sands National Monument

White Sands National Park is a unique place that looks like a snow-covered beach. Thanks to so few people visiting it, it always looks perfect. The desert resembles the first snow that has yet to see any footprintsm so it’s a perfect place for when you need some peace.

We’ve done a lot of road tripping with a toddler in tow. And I like for them to be occupied but I don’t like bringing a million toys (or having my vehicle be taken over by them). . Today, I’m sharing my favorite toddler road trip activities that hold their attention for longer than 20 seconds and are worth bringing along. Some favorites include wikki stock, my favorite activity book, and, of course, some terrific toddler-oriented audiobooks. Go check out the full list on my blog! .

Lake Pontchartrain Causeway

Do you know which bridge is the biggest in the U.S.? It’s Lake Pontchartrain Causeway, a bridge that connects New Orleans and Mandeville. It may not be as popular as the Golden Gate Bridge, but it does hold the Guinness World Record.

Petrified Forest National Park

Sometimes the most impressive things are made by nature, just like the Petrified Forest National Park, which has fossilized wood over 200 million years old and colorful rocks that make the place look like something from another planet.
