New York
New York City takes up most of the state's reputation, but New York the state is enormous, and most of it looks nothing like Manhattan.
Niagara Falls sits at the far western edge, the Adirondacks and Finger Lakes fill the middle with hiking trails and wineries, and Buffalo has its own food identity built around wings and roast beef sandwiches.
A trip that only sees the city is only seeing a fraction of what the state actually offers.
