New York City in the East speaks for itself, a dominant skyline hovering over the fast-paced Manhattan lifestyle. However, it’s only a short journey by air to Washington DC, Boston, Atlantic City, Miami and even Niagara Falls near the Canadian border. Scratching the surface…but heading West, music fans can experience Graceland in Memphis and Nashville (the "home of Country Western Music”), before visiting Chicago. Then, head south for jazz in New Orleans, jump across to Texas…before enjoying the grandeur of Yellowstone National Park as we cross the interior. Before we hit the sun-soaked Californian beaches, the Nevada Desert awaits us! Las Vegas (click here for more about Las Vegas) promises ‘24 hour entertainment’, but is a stone’s throw from the inspirational beauty of the Grand Canyon. Next…admire the rolling hills of San Francisco overlooking the harbour and Golden Gate Bridge. An increasingly popular destination, it’s also located near the wine growing Napa Valley region. Heading further up the West Coast, discover the glamour of Los Angeles - Hollywood, Beverly Hills, Malibu and Venice Beach. Or, you can simply spend a few relaxing days in Hawaii or take the ‘children’ to Disneyland - the world’s largest theme park!

Atlanta has more restaurants, entertainment venues and cultural attractions than any other city in the Southeast. With a population of almost 4 million people, Atlanta is the 10th largest city in the United States. Atlanta is undisputedly the economic hub of the Southeast, but, as its nickname implies, "Hotlanta" has also emerged as the cultural capital of this region. The city has achieved unparalleled growth in the last 20 years while still maintaining the unique Southern flavor that has been immortalized in the epic film, "Gone With the Wind". CNN Center is also available for visitors who would like to tour the studios and participate in a live broadcast (see Inside CNN Atlanta Studio Tour).

| Chicago - Chicago doesn't have mountains like Denver or beaches like Miami. It has buildings. Sure, as the nation's third largest city, Chicago serves up world-class attractions like museums, an active arts scene and championship sports teams -- as well as homegrown favorites like deep-dish pizza, Oprah and the Blues Brothers. But it's in architecture that the Windy City really shines.

This is where East merges with West in a blur of hula and disco, fast food and tea ceremonies, Shinto shrines and surf clubs. Mark Twain declared Hawaii to be the loveliest fleet of islands that lies anchored in any ocean, and not even 30 years of mass tourism have managed to prove him wrong. Whether your thing is volcano spotting, surfing or just lying back and smelling the orchids, this is the place to indulge yourself.
