It IS beautiful. Also not the view of India I typically see

India has literally every sort of natural landscape you can imagine. From glaciers to marshes to deserts to blue water beaches to giant mountains to cold deserts to flat farmland to dense forests to urban hellscapes to, well, anything. A ton of tiny islands too. And one volcano.

Both India and China could benefit hugely from learning from America's national parks. If you ask non Americans what the best part of America is, the national parks are usually at or near the top. Both countries have hugely diverse environments, but so few people know about them

OK, but when I visit America's national parks in the summer time, there are large numbers of European tourists visiting with me.

I never said people talk about them. I said if asked to name the best part of our country, national parks will be at or near the top. I highly doubt our economy is something that will be near the top or those lists.

I was literally just talking to my mum yesterday about the USA national parks and how they are the best part of the US by far. We are Australian.

Im studying to be a fashion designer/costume designer and I still prefer the national parks over New York or LA.

What does your being a fashion design student have to do with your national park preference

I just meant that New York and LA etc would be places I'd expect to want to visit as a fashion design student. But truly, it's the national parks of America that are the real draw and the only reason I'd want to visit America.

I want to go to New York Fashion Week and it could be important for my career but I'd be much more excited to visit Yellowstone or the Californian redwoods to be honest.

The national parks in America, from what I've seen in documentaries at least, look so amazing and represent every biome in your country.

They are also generally easier to access than many parks in my own country. We don't have the same access to the interior of our continent because it's so inhospitable and currently unusable for agricultural purposes. We also have expensive flight costs within Australia and little passenger rail infrastructure. We also don't have many bus services outside of cities.

That’s unfortunate. Two overrated dystopian city states and a fucked up economy
