There are some corner's of my high school which can be really good SceneryPorn. Too bad I don't own a decent camera...

I think everywhere is/has the potential to be scenery porn. I live on the coast of Cornwall, England, and it's one of the most beautiful places I've been. Here and here are pictures of the beach I live near.

Washington State. That is all. Even the ''cities''. This troper and her friend grew up there. That friend eventually decided that she wanted to become a photographer. Pictures like the ones this troper just linked to were probably the reason for that. They're the reason this troper wants to be there instead of ''here''.

This Troper lives in Seattle and totally agrees. Ten years in the city, and I keep finding new reasons to smile. Sure, we get nine months of gray weather, but when the blue sky shows up, you're grateful for it. Heck, after a while, you're grateful for the clouds and rain, too...

Oh my god, I want to study abroad there and that just gives me another reason!

@/DesertDragon: When I finally moved out on my own, I wanted someplace with a strong IT field but still a day's drive from my family in {{Cleveland}}. My best bets were {{Chicago}}, Columbus, or {{Pittsburgh}}. Against my better judgement, I chose Pittsburgh because it was the closest and I had a friend to room with. I spent my first couple days in town wondering if I made the right choice (Columbus has a much healthier gay scene, and Chicago is ''Chicago''), then one day I went sight-seeing and rode the Duquesne Incline up Mt. Washington. The view from the top was absolutely breathtaking. Every doubt I had about living in Pittsburgh went away then, since it made me realize that it doesn't have to be Chicago; it has its own identity. And it doesn't need a strong gay scene; I can make my scene wherever I go and find a guy willing to go along for the ride. I've loved it here ever since.

This Floridian Troper will always remember stepping outside of my house into the nearly pitch-black night after Hurricane Ivan blew through, looking up, and seeing the Milky Way firsthand, framed by the trees that were still standing, and then just standing there in awe. Another time, This troper had to drive to South Carolina to pick up a relative, which involved driving through the southern parts of the Appalachian Mountains. It should be noted that this troper has always had a significant fear of heights. Even so, this troper eventually got over his fear long enough to make it to the top of one of the mountains, walk to a balcony hanging over a very long drop, and just take in the numerous mountains and valleys.

The Oregon Coast, all the way. I couldn't stop taking pictures when I visited over spring break, and now my phone has a gratuitous overload of pictures of pretty trees, the ocean, more trees, and mountains, plus some more trees and a little bit more of the ocean.

This editor lives in the Northeastern part of North Carolina (close to the Virginia border), and it is chock-full of SceneryPorn. My personal favorite is Pilot Mountain, but there's also Hanging Rock, Sauratown Mountain (even though it's not a tourist destination by any means - being dedicated to a broadcasting center and some homes - it's absolutely amazing. The huge TV towers at night...), Grandfather Mountain... and that's not even getting into the Blue Ridge mountains. The Appalachians may not be as iconic or towering as the Rockies or Alps, but that doesn't mean they aren't incredibly beautiful.

To go into detail about Pilot Mountain, it's absolutely essential to actually go up to the park (which is free), where you can go to several easily accessible observation points (although there are hiking trails for more adventurous visitors). One of these is the highest accessible point on the mountain, and it is ''amazing'' - especially on a clear day. You can see not only the mountain's Big Pinnacle in front of you, but also the entire Blue Ridge range, Sauratown Mountain and Hanging Rock (and I'm sure I saw Grandfather Mountain up there), and if it's clear enough, even NC's cities like Winston-Salem, Greensboro and Charlotte. The first time I went up there on a really clear day, it was so amazing and beautiful that it nearly drew ManlyTears.
