Please say sights. Sites seems like you’re talking about websites.
Either would be correct. Just depends on how OP meant it. Sights are things you see; sites are locations. Websites are locations on the web. Utterly ceding the word "sites" to the internet seems unnecessary.

Dachau, Germany. My girlfriend and I made a stop there while backpacking through Europe fresh out of college. It was the most sobering place I’ve ever been. It was heavy. Even now, it’s hard to comprehend.

I took my son for a 3 day trip to Palo Duro for his 12th bday, and it was one of the best trips of my life. That canyon is incredible and so sparsely visited unlike Grand Canyon. It’s not as majestic as the Grand Canyon of course, but it’s great in its own right.

The Badlands. Seems so out of place in South Dakota.
This is my answer as well. I guess I expected the Grand Canyon to be as vast as it was so I didn't feel overwhelmed by the size. I did get freaked out when I got close to the edge.
The Badlands is just otherworldly. I felt like I was visiting a different planet.
I would also add Normandy. We visited last July and just seeing row after row after row of graves was just overwhelming. I felt so many emotions during that visit - sadness, pride, awe, sorrow, grief.

Driskill mountain took my breath away the first time I saw it.

I was not prepared to be hit as hard as I was at Dachau. I didn't want to talk to anyone for hours after leaving. One of those things that you read about and think you understand the scale of it, but nothing really prepares you to see it.

The view of San Quentin prison from a boat is pretty awesome. It's massive. Fortress.

The powers that be have downgraded Katrina to a 3 somehow, but I drove through Slidell a few days after landfall, and I never want to see anything like that again.
I’ve been told Waveland was worse.

This one blew my mind more than anything and I’ve seen pretty much every natural wonder in this country. It looks and feels so prehistoric you expect to see a T-Rex peek out from behind one of those big bastards.
