Long Island stretches eastward for 115 miles, from the New York boroughs of Brooklyn and Queens to the bluffs of Montauk Point. Take the short train ride from Manhattan to the sands of Long Beach, which for many is where Long Island begins.

https://www.expedia.com/Portland.d181420.Destination-Travel-Guides Portland, Saco, Cape Porpoise and Kennebunkport sit on the southern coastline of Maine. Part of Portland's great charm is its working waterfront. Amble down Commercial Street and spend a few hours drifting around the many wharves and piers. Then, follow the salty breezes through the streets and lanes of the historic port district.
With a population of only 300,000, Iceland can feel like the most isolated place on earth, yet its capital Reykjavik, is only a three-hour flight from London and just under six from New York. Reykjavik is relaxed and welcoming, yet possesses a cultural life that holds its own against other European capitals.
Four hundred miles west of Moscow is St. Petersburg, Russia. A striking city resting on the banks of the Neva River, St. Petersburg has long been a draw for lovers of architecture, as St. Petersburg tours often begin with the city's legendary structures.
Nashville - The capital city of Tennessee is set to give you a country music education of epic proportions. From the historic attractions to the live music, Nashville is a city all its own.

It's only 93 miles from Florida, and just 13 from the Bahamas, but like the smoke that coils from its legendary cigars, The Republic of Cuba exists in a time and space all its own.

Kyoto, Japan, has long been considered one of the country's most beautiful cities. Once the capital of the nation, Kyoto is now an ultra-modern haven that retains a great deal of its ancient charm. To see some of this long-established glamour, make your way to Kyoto Tower.
