If you're wondering, the most popular vacation spot in the country is Vegas, baby. Yes, Las Vegas is not only the most popular vacation spot in the country, but it's one of the most well-known and visited worldwide.

North Dakota's Top Vacation Spot

You might think that with it being so cold in North Dakota all the time, the first place people would want to escape to is somewhere tropical and warm; that doesn't seem to be the case here.

North Dakota's number one vacation spot is Minnesota. Minnesota is our neighboring state, so I'm sure it's no surprise to you that this is the top place people go to get away.

Minnesota doesn't have warm weather, but it does have a buzzing city, and is just a day trip away. This is where many North Dakotans go for a quick weekend trip.

Sin City (Vegas) came in second place in North Dakota, followed by Nashville. North Dakotans love country music, so that checks out.

Number four on the list of North Dakota's top U.S. vacation spots is Denver. Skiing, snowboarding, hiking, mountains... what's not to love?

The 5th most-popular U.S. vacation spot North Dakotans love to frequent is Chicago. I found this one surprising. It must be The Bean. People love The Bean.
