A lot of people here are saying &quot;This list seems extremely arbitrary&quot;, and I was of that mindset as well until I got five places into the list and found Teddy Roosevelt NP. The national parks of North Dakota are amazing, and it&#x27;s hard to describe exactly why you should go. I could say &quot;grand views, few people, and towns that make me laugh&quot; but that doesn&#x27;t summarize it well at all.<p>Some of these places should be more and less generalized, however. &quot;Skane, Sweden&quot; ought to be changed to &quot;a less populated region of the Norwegian or Swedish coast, somewhere with a historic lighthouse&quot;. I&#x27;ve spent some time on the coast of Norway, and I think it&#x27;s one of the most beautiful places in the world. Additionally, naming &quot;Kansai, Japan&quot; is ridiculous, it encompasses 22 million people and three major cities (Osaka&#x2F;Kyoto&#x2F;Kobe); this is especially ridiculous given that there&#x27;s also a place on the list with a population of 113.
