#1: Mount Rushmore, Keystone, SD
When they say some people are larger than life, they might have been talking about the four presidents carved into Mount Rushmore. Designed to promote tourism in South Dakota, Mount Rushmore took nearly 400 people to carve from October 1927 to October 1941. More than 2 million people every year pay a visit to the Black Hills to see George Washington, Thomas Jefferson, Teddy Roosevelt and Abraham Lincoln — all selected because of their role in expanding territory and preserving the United States.
