1. Detroit, Michigan

Estonia may not be as frequently visited as other European countries, but Tallinn's soaring Gothic architecture in the form of St. Olaf's church and Valjaha church provide plenty of worthy opportunities for sightseeing in the capital city.

Between the National Aquarium, Inner Harbor, Fort McHenry (where the battle that inspired "The Star-Spangled Banner" was fought), and various art museums, Baltimore has no shortage of cultural and historic sites. That is, in case the song "Good Morning Baltimore" from the musical "Hairspray" wasn't already enough of a motivation to visit.
Port Douglas is one of the access points to the Great Barrier Reef, but it's less crowded and touristy than the nearby Cairns. It's known for its Four Mile Beach and is a short drive away from the Daintree Rainforest.
