Most Beautiful Place?

Québec City!

It's teeming with history, has cobblestone pedestrian streets, is very walk-able (though be prepared to take on some steep hills!), and the architecture in the historic area near the Château Frontenac makes you feel like you're stepping into the 1600s.

I love the atmosphere of the town. Lots of little independent local shops and the feeling in December near the holidays when they have all the lights and decorations out is magical. :-)

Go down to the river's edge, lean against the railing, let the gentle snowfall lightly dust your hair, and just try not to fall in love with this place. It just feels warm and cozy but at the same time majestic when you look up and see the Chateau all lit up and looming over everything.

Plus, while you're there you can splurge on some authentic French-Canadian poutine!

(I have no idea how to resize this on my iPhone... sorry)

If you are ever in Montréal, be sure to try at least two of the 25 different variations at La Banquise!

Probably somewhere we can lay out on the sand.I also like laying under the stars at night,looking up at the constellation.I think anytime i'm with a lover,just being together can be a beautiful place.

There is a place in California called Lake Oroville, and if you rent a house boat for a few days, and the first night, dock right out in the middle of the lake, anchoring on this little island that is right in the middle. Climb up on the observation deck of the house boat and lay up there, staring up at the sky, you can literally see the entire milky way. It is one of the most amazing sites I have ever seen. Then, for the rest of your stay, head on up one of the forks, north or south is fine, and you can dock in private little alcoves, usually with tiny water falls running down the alcove, its so peaceful to wake up to every morning. So quiet, so perfect.

The Smokey Mountains in Tennessee. I was driving cross country and was going through a valley in the Smokey Mountains and it brought me to tears. I still haven't seen anything so beautiful that affected me so deeply and quickly.

The Black Hills in South Dakota. It was the first time I had seen purple mountains. It was just beautiful.
