People say that Iowa is boring, and that there's nothing to see here. Obviously, these people haven't spent much time in our state, otherwise they would know how many amazing views there are to be had here. From crowded city skylines to the wide open country horizon, these views in Iowa will be sure to leave you breathless:
1. The bright and bustling Des Moines skyline at night is anything but boring.
2. And the Cedar Rapids cityscape isn't too shabby either.
3. Downtown Davenport lights up the night with its sky bridge.
4. The Dubuque skyline is filled with steeples and historic architecture that gives it a character all its own.
5. The simple Iowa City skyline is magnified by a beautiful pink sunset.
6. And the sunset skyline at the Iowa State Fair is one of the most magical sights you'll ever see.
7. But sometimes the simpler skylines are just as beautiful, like these balloons during the National Balloon Classic in Indianola.
8. Or this star-speckled night sky reflected onto the lake below.
9. Or this silhouette of a rural Iowa farm against the colorful sunrise sky.
10. Or this lonely old barn, sitting under a twilight sky.
These are the kinds of views that we Iowans are lucky enough to experience on a daily basis. If you ask me, I think Iowa has some of the most beautiful views in the world.
