They are usually eaten both in shabby food trucks and in luxury restaurants and the hamburger is undoubtedly the most characteristic dish in the United States.

20. Fly Geyser, Nevada

It does not appear in the great tourist guides and, until a few decades ago, it was not even known by the inhabitants of the area. However, everyone agrees that it is a pearl; an accident of the hand of the man that has turned into an almost natural wonder near Gerlach, in the Black Rock desert, to the northwest of the North American state of Nevada.

The Fly Geyser is the beautiful result of a human error, so it is not a completely natural phenomenon. Even so, its beauty makes it one of the best tourist possibilities for those who travel to Nevada, despite not being one of the best known. Also, the water that constantly releases from the geyser at first sight can look like three mountains of different colors, reaches a meter and a half in the air.

21. Yellowstone National Park

The feats of the Yogi Bear made the Yellowstone National Park famous. But the truth is that there are so many natural attractions you have that you would not have needed. Here grizzly bears live with black bears, coyotes with wolves and moose and bison with deer, among other species.

But here, too, there are rivers for whitewater rafting, lakes, lush forests, canyons and hundreds of waterfalls dotting this natural space distributed between the states of Wyoming, Idaho and Montana.

22. Alvord Desert, Oregon

It is very likely that neither the Alvord Desert nor Mount Steens are among the first places on your list of future bike routes; maybe not even in the places to visit. This area, which is home to one of Oregon's most striking geographic formations, is incredibly secluded and hides an ancient alkaline plain (or dry lake) that abruptly abuts a spectacular, steep mountain of snow-capped peaks.

This place full of rugged terrain, long hours of inclement sun and beautiful gravel tracks where the presence of other human beings is practically nonexistent. The greatness of the neighboring mount Steens, added to the mystic and solitary aura of the desert.

Located in Harney County, in the central region of Oregon, the Alvord desert extends through the orographic shadow immediately to the east of Mount Steen at a northern altitude of 1,200 m. The site, which was once a huge lake of 160 kilometers with a depth of more than 60 m, is now completely dry from July to November, and its surface is now occupied by a mystical arid plain of approximately 32 kilometers in length and 11 of width.

The desert rests on a tectonic fault that elevated a block of basalt between faults to create Mount Steens during the Miocene, approximately eight to fifteen million years ago. The mountain, a escarpment of north-south component that extends for more than 64 km giving the appearance of a real mountainous chain, rises abruptly and sharply more than 1,500 m above the plane of the desert until reaching 2,978 m at its peak high.

Both the mountain and its surrounding areas can only be described with one word: spectacular. According to Google Maps, the eastern slopes were dotted with old roads and paths.

23. Thor's Well, Oregon

Thor's Well is located on the edges of the Oregon coast. Sometimes also known as the drainage channel of the Pacific Ocean, the well is located in the scenic area of ​​Cape Perpetua, a few miles south of Yachats. More precisely, it is located near Spouting Horn in Cook's Chasm.

In addition to the circular shape and location close to the Pacific Ocean, the feature itself is not very different from nearby features such as Cook's Chasm and Devil's Churn. A fascinating feature of the well is that it never fills with water despite the endless flow of water provided by the majestic Pacific.

During high tide, water fills it from the bottom with a side opening. Once the well is full, it bubbles violently through the top due to the energy in the waves. The water that gushes down again and returns to the well. This mechanism gives the unique appearance that the well never fills. Anyone wishing to observe this mechanism at work can do so while the tide is low.

The site is especially tempting for people who enjoy photography or those who are looking for strong emotions. The most spectacular views are seen at high tide or when there are storms. During these times, the water gains enough momentum and energy to fill the hole quickly and create powerful shoots at the top of the well.

24. Rowena Crest, Oregon

If you are looking for a relaxed and somewhat passive day trip, Rowena Crest is the perfect place to go. Take a constant drive from downtown Portland to the Rowena Crest viewpoint. Rowena Crest is a viewpoint from which we can enjoy the calls Rowena Loops, a section of the Historic Columbia River Highway or Highway 30 very close to the small town of Lyons and a few kilometers from The Dalles.

Here you can put together a picnic table, snacks and a book, or if you feel a bit more adventurous, put on your hiking boots and go for a walk. The hiking trails around Rowena Crest are gentle, easy and suitable for all fitness levels. Wherever you lock yourself is an impressive view of the landscape, each one more impressive than the previous one.

25. Glacier Bay Basin, Alaska

Alaska is among the 10 most beautiful places in the world that actually exist. The descent of the glaciers from the snowy peaks to the bay of the glaciers creates one of the best landscapes in the world to observe the creation of icebergs. The most famous glacier in the Glacier Bay Basin located on the Pacific Ocean coast of Alaska, is the Muir Glacier, 3 kilometers long and 80 meters thick. Until 1750 the bay was a huge glacier.

Alaska is another of the best place to spend Christmas in US and is also one of the best place to visit in December.

Is it possible to travel to Holland without having to stop in Eindhoven, devastated during World War II. Without much charm, it is famous for its football team, the famous PSV, as well as for the electronics company Philips. It is to the latter that the most fashionable city in the Netherlands owes its development as well.

But I advise not to immediately remove Eindhoven from your itinerary. In fact, the city can be very interesting as a base to visit its surroundings with some unusual things to do in Eindhoven. As an example, I will tell you that Amsterdam, the capital, is less than an hour and a half by train.

As we know, it was Edison who invented the light bulb, but the production on a large scale was something of Gerard Philips and his father Frederik. History tells the Philips Museum, but also the Art Hotel, in the city center, with rooms from 100 euros. Part of this four stars is inside the old tower of light where incandescent lamps were manufactured at the end of the 19th century.

And although there is little time to see the immense collection of modern and contemporary art of the Van Abbemuseum, just to see the spectacular building of Abel Cahen is worth approaching the river Dommel.

Visit the Strijp-S, the old Philips factory and headquarters of the Dutch Design Week. If you play at home PSV, Eindhoven is an opportunity to go to the Philips Stadion or visit its open air museum. Rent a bicycle at the Tourist Office and pedal to Neunen, one of the cities where Vincent van Gogh lived and where it is possible to see many of his most world famous works.

Finally, Eindhoven is also known for its airport, where low-cost airlines usually land. It can therefore serve as a gateway or exit to the country, with the consequent savings in the price of your tickets. So, when you go to buy or book your plane ticket, be very aware of Eindhoven. Often the rates to fly there are very interesting. In short, Eindhoven is really interesting as a base or to get to or leave the country.

Many low cost airlines such as easyJet, Transavia and Vueling fly to Amsterdam's main airport, Schiphol. Without a doubt the best option if you want to go to the center of the capital.

There is also another alternative, that of flying to the Eindhoven airport. In this case, you can probably find cheaper tickets. The only drawback is the distance. Eindhoven is one hour and a half from Amsterdam. Ryanair, Wizzair and Transavia are the low cost airlines that fly to Eindhoven Airport.

In this post I will explain how easy it is to get to Amsterdam from the Eindhoven airport. As soon as you leave the airport there is a bus stop. Look closely, because if you do not have buses waiting you may miss it. We took the bus that left us at the Eindhoven train station. Even if it creates a bit of confusion, the train station and the bus station are together.

In that station was where we bought some cards with which we can access all public transport. While we were buying our cards, we took advantage and asked the girl what was the next train to Amsterdam Central Station and we went to the corresponding platform. The road to get to Amsterdam from the Eindhoven airport was quite simple and it only separates us an hour's journey.

Since we left the Eindhoven train station, all the landscapes we saw on our way were incredible. All very green, full of color and animals. Without problems we arrived at Central Amsterdam and from there we took the tram to our Airbnb house.
