Anchorage
Anchorage is a paradisiacal home base for skiers, hikers, fishermen and wildlife watchers, but that doesn't mean the city itself should be ignored. Alaska's metropolis boasts a plethora of attractions, including museums, shops, nightlife venues and a fantastic zoo. And if nature is your true calling, bear in mind that you don't have to skirt the city limits to get your fill: Visit during the summer to experience the City of Flowers (home to more than 400 flower beds) in full bloom or during any other season to be dazzled by the sparkling Northern Lights.
It use to be a city filled with tent and now it has houses.

Puerto Rico
Puerto Rico has both 20-foot waves for surfers and calm, clear waters for families. It's a stroll back through time (El Morro) and an up-close look at the contemporary (Calle del Cristo). It's an exhilarating mix of landscapes, from the serpentine jungle of El Yunque to the corkscrew caves of Parque de las Cavernas del Río Camuy. And if you want to get away from civilization entirely, you can ferry over to the secluded -- not to mention jaw-droppingly gorgeous -- islands of Vieques and Culebra.Puerto Rico really should be explored over at least three or four days.Much of Puerto Rican culture, from the food to the music and the people's sensibilities, represent the island's combined North American, Caribbean and indigenous Taíno ancestry.
