America is full of breathtakingly beautiful natural scenery, from expansive forests stretching hundreds of miles along mountain ranges to wonders of nature that formed over millions of years into the awe-inspiring sights we know today to swaths of coastal shores offering views of the ocean as far as the eye can see.
Travel + Leisure compiled a list of the 50 "most beautiful places in the U.S.," detailing the most gorgeous spot in each state that showcases the true beauty of America. According to the list, the most beautiful place in Colorado is Garden of the Gods. Based on the name, you can expect heavenly views everywhere you look as you explore this landmark.
Here's what the site had to say:
"Anyone with even a passing interest in geology or photography, or just knockout natural splendor in general, might find themselves speechless at the sight of Garden of the Gods. Two tips: Aim to visit the lofty sandstone formations on a weekday morning to avoid the crowds, and take the Siamese Twins loop for a view of snowy Pikes Peak (the inspiration for 'America the Beautiful') set in a frame of red rocks."
