Flushing, Queens
Step off the 7 train and into this Queens neighborhood and you might think you've traveled to Asia. In fact, Asians make up nearly 70% of the population here, and their cultures thrive. And while Flushing might be known as Queens Chinatown, it's so much more than that.
The busy streets are lined with pharmacies selling all kinds of ginseng, beauty stores filled with Korean skincare products, busy hot pot restaurants, and tiny hole-in-the-wall dumpling shops. You can walk blocks without hearing English spoken. There are bustling mall food courts where you can find the best Asian delicacies in New York, and possibly all of the US.

#3 looks nothing like an English seaside village. The architecture is completely wrong, the layout is completely wrong. Everything about it screams American.

Helen, GA used to be a worthwhile place to visit back in the 70's and 80's but now it just looks like a run down tourist trap.

Catalina Island: you can walk maybe a mile in any direction before running into a locked gate.
