Make a travel goal to visit an architectural wonder in every state! Some of these sites are remote so you need to plan a special trip to get there. Others are in major cities along main routes of travel. Many of these you can appreciate their wonder 24 hours a day 7 days a week by examining their exterior. Many religious sites are architectural wonders but we left most of them off this list. You can find them on our Travel Goal Getter Religious Sites List.
