We hear a lot about which destinations are overrated, too crowded, expensive, full of scams, suffering from overtourism, etc.

But which ones do you think are deservedly popular? Which ones justify the hype?

    You know how the grand canyon always looks kinda crazy in photos? It looks just as crazy in person and it is wild.

      It’s one of those places where you go and say, “oh okay I get it. This is incredible.” Pictures don’t do it justice. The physicality of being next to it is hard to describe.

      I honestly think the Grand Canyon is even crazier in person. In photos, it looks like a big hole, but in person it is truly a grand hole.

      Reminds me of the Parks and Rec line from Ron Swanson. Something about only two things that are acceptable for a man to cry over. I forget the first one but the second was the Grand Canyon. I’m in no way ashamed to say that place got a tear in my eye.
