I'll be that guy

I was completely underwhelmed by the Grand Canyon. I saw it and thought "Cool"

And that was really it

To each his own. For me, it's the closest thing to a "religious experience" I've ever had in my life.

Underwhelmed by Niagara Falls.

Grand Canyon is obviously a good one.

That total eclipse a few years back. I knew what to expect, but experiencing it from inside the totality was more of a “you have to see it” experience than I expected.

Whoever mentioned the British Museum, that’s a good one. Seeing the things like the Rosetta Stone and other things you learned about in school in person is an experience.

Havent been to Glacier NP yet but planning a trip next year but have been to Rocky's multiple times and Estes Park/RMNP and Maroon Bells next to Aspen have to be my top 2 at this point.

Pictures do it no justice.

Yes to each his own. I guess I am jaded. I have been many places and there are very few things I recall being awed or captivated by

It was beautiful. It was cool to see and I enjoyed going there. I just didn't have any overwhelming feeling

I get the feeling; I've been to tons of "once in a lifetime" places and experienced what you did. Stepping up to the south rim of the Grand Canyon is just one of the experiences I've had that took my breath away. Out of curiosity, what are some of the places you've been that did have that effect on you?

The Burj Khalifa is super impressive. Especially when you realize how tall the buildings are surrounding it that it dwarfs.

Total solar eclipse may have been the coolest thing I’ve ever seen with my eyes. I had no idea what I was in store for.

The Badlands.

It's crazy how the temp goes up by 30 degrees from just 10 miles out.
