9Great Smoky Mountains National Park, Tennessee and North Carolina
Possibly the U.S. national park that is most associated with fall foliage, this two-state wonder is blessed with more than a hundred species of native trees—most U.S. parks have fewer than 20—that flourish in the oldest old-growth hardwood forest remaining on the east coast.
Infinity pools in the Italian Alps stand out not just for their design but for how they integrate into the natural landscape. They offer a chance to immerse oneself in both water and nature, with views that extend into the alpine horizon. Unlike pools in urban settings, these pools are complemented by dramatic mountain vistas, pristine air, and an overwhelming sense of serenity.
