Culture, cuisine, and castles, along with wine and wildlife, are some of the prime reasons we wander abroad. Sure, you can eat tapas in Texas or sip wine in Washington, but those experiences can\u2019t replicate imbibing in Barcelona or Burgundy. And certainly, traveling within one\u2019s own country cannot replace the cultural seasoning that spices up overseas trips. Still, there are opportunities in the United States to enjoy reasonable facsimiles of favorite foreign forays.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\"><a href=\"https:\/\/www.orbitz.com\/blog\/2020\/10\/top-10-national-parks-to-visit-in-fall\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\"><strong>RELATED:<\/strong> Top 10 National Parks to visit in fall<\/a><\/p>\n<h1><strong>Go on a wildlife &#8220;safari&#8221;<\/strong><\/h1>\n<p>Okay, you aren\u2019t going to encounter lions or tigers or giraffes on safari in the United States.

Then make a beeline to <strong>Custer State Park<\/strong> in South Dakota. It\u2019s home to nearly 1,500 North American bison, more commonly referred to as buffalo. And yes, the deer and the antelope of song play there as well, along with mountain goats, elk, bighorn sheep, wild turkeys, and prairie dogs. A drive along the park\u2019s wildlife loop road can feel like a mini-safari. While you can <a href=\"https:\/\/www.orbitz.com\/Custer-State-Park-Hotels.0-l6337947-0.Travel-Guide-Filter-Hotels\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">overnight in nearby Custer<\/a>, a more authentic experience can be had by staying <a href=\"https:\/\/www.orbitz.com\/Custer-Hotels-State-Game-Lodge-At-Custer-State-Park-Resort.h1672298.Hotel-Information\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">at a state park lodge<\/a>. By the way, while in the neighborhood, be sure to explore some of the other tourist attractions of the Black Hills region, including Mount Rushmore and the Crazy Horse Memorial, a fascinating work in progress.<\/p>\n<p>Another popular destination for an American-style safari is <strong>Yellowstone National Park<\/strong>, located (mostly) in Wyoming. You have your bison, your mule deer and elk, your bighorn sheep and mountain goats, and your bears, mountain lions, bobcats, and wolves. In all, Yellowstone sports the largest concentration of mammals in the Lower 48.

Of course, everyone knows about California wine country, but <strong>Virginia<\/strong>, believe it or not, is for wine lovers, as well. Loudoun County, just outside of Washington, DC, is where horse country meets wine country. The county boasts more than 40 wineries and tasting rooms, many of which are located along scenic country roads dotted with roadside stands, antique shops, and horse farms.

Viticulture regions include the North Fork of Long Island, The Finger Lakes in central New York and the bucolic Hudson Valley, which is home to the country\u2019s oldest winery (that\u2019s Brotherhood Winery, circa 1839). For a taste of ice wines, head to the state\u2019s northernmost vineyards, located near Niagara Falls and the Champlain Valley.

It remained a royal residence until Queen Liliuokalani, the king&#8217;s sister and successor, was deposed and the Hawaiian monarchy overthrown in 1893. Like any palace worthy of the name, the massive residence has a throne room, a grand hall, royal bedrooms, and a state dining room. Unlike other palaces, it also has an Imprisonment Room, where the deposed queen was held for eight months. Docent-led and self-guided tours offer a history lesson likely to be new to most mainlanders.
