There are so many beautiful places to see that it comes as no surprise that many travelers try to capture them with photos. What makes a destination photo-worthy has to do with not just how it looks, but the ease of access and uniqueness of it. These are some of the most photographed destinations in North America.
The Las Vegas Strip
With all of its glitz and glamour, it’s not surprising that this is one of North America’s most photographed places. It’s impossible to get everything in just one photo so many travelers will take entire collages of the Vegas Strip. The neon lights and incredible buildings of the Vegas Strip leave phototakers with some pretty amazing pictures.
The Grand Canyon
Looking at the massive size of the Grand Canyon leaves many travelers in awe. They absolutely must take a picture of it in order to capture the moment, but photos really don’t do the area justice, as it is often difficult to gauge the enormity of it in just one photo. However, many travelers are able to take photos of the Grand Canyon that really leave others speechless.
Niagara Falls
With around 150,000 gallons of water cascading down per second, this is not only one of North America’s most photographed places but one of the wettest. You can capture pictures of the falls by standing on one of the pedestrian bridges. You can also take a boat ride close to the falls or even a helicopter ride over them.
Yosemite Valley
This seven-mile-long valley offers many opportunities to take extraordinary photos. There is a lot of scenery located here as well as sites like Yosemite Falls and the Half Dome. It’s not uncommon for amateur photographers to spend all day here just slowly making their way down the valley taking photos.
Denali National Park And Preserve
With 6 million acres spread out around you, there are plenty of reasons why this is one of North America’s most photographed places. Here you can explore glaciers, mountains, and valleys while looking for the perfect photo opportunity. There is also a large abundance of wildlife to see, so it’s important to have your camera ready at all times.
Seattle’s Space Needle
There are a couple of different ways you can take pictures while you are at the Space Needle. The many vantage points of the Space Needle make it a site to add to any trip. Taking pictures of this incredible landmark from the ground are great in their own right, but you can also go the 520 feet up to the observation deck and take pictures of the scenery that can easily be captured by your camera from this vantage point.
