10 More Historical Places Everyone Should See

Historic PlacesIt’s interesting that some of my popular posts come from the trough category (my unusual dog post has by far seen the highest number of views) but the historical places to see was well-recieved too.

Luckliy several people left comments with suggestions, so I added some of theirs and some more of my own to create part 2. As usual I looked for the most stunning and unique shot I could find so visiting them via the Internet is a pleasant experience as well. I’m open for suggestions for part 3 (which is inevitable, really) so if you have one (or 10) of your own, leave a comment & share them.

This is by no means a complete list of great historical sites, but it’s another rung in the ladder.

    Cool, I would suggest the Statue of Liberty, very big and slightly creepy on the inside…
