The 17 most romantic spots in America
In preparation for Valentine's Day, Amazon released their picks for the most romantic cities in America.
Number four on their list is a place where you can sail away on the winds of love: Alexandria, Virginia.
Smoky Mountains near Knoxville, Tenn.
A short drive away from Knoxville, Tennessee - the No. 1 city on Amazon's list - you'll find the Smoky Mountains, a natural wonder full of waterfalls and other places to fall in love.
The Capitol Building in Salem, Oregon
The abundant cherry blossoms around the Oregon State Capitol Building make it look like a scene from a romantic movie.
The Empire State Building
New York City was absent from Amazon's list, but the Empire State Building is still a top spot for Valentine's Day weddings and romantic scenes (remember "An Affair to Remember"?).
Wide open spaces in Billings, Montana
Wide-open spaces, like this view of the Beartooth Mountains in Billings, Montana, are what placed this city on the list.
The Santa Monica Pier
The perfect spot for those who enjoy long walks on the California beach. Gorgeous sunsets and calming waves are just a few of the things this city has to offer.
San Antonio River Walk
By boat or by foot, the San Antonio River Walk is a spot where romance flows.
Love Park, Philadelphia
John F. Kennedy Plaza in Philadelphia is also known as Love Park. The romance is right there in the name!
Walt Disney World, Orlando, Florida
Grab your prince or princess and write your own fairy tale, starting at Cinderella's castle in Orlando, which landed at No. 3 on Amazon's list.
Emerald Isle, North Carolina
Wilmington, North Carolina, made it on Amazon's list, and not far away is Emerald Isle, where you can ride waves to heart's content.
Gas Works Park, Seattle, Washington
Sledding in the winter, kite flying in spring, fall picnics ... you and yours can get cuddly at Seattle's Gas Works Park all year long.
Buckingham Fountain, Chicago
Take your beau to the Buckingham Fountain or for a ride on the Navy Pier Ferris Wheel. Or prove how much you love them by doing both!
Miami Beach
The beach is fun for two, but why not kick it up a notch? Try falling in love over a dinner at Casa Tua in Miami, which landed at No. 2 on the list.
The Bellagio, Las Vegas
Get swept away on the Strip. If love is true, there are plenty of chapels around to make it official!
The Fountains of San Jose, Calif.
Frolic with your true love in the fountains in San Jose, California. Enjoy the gorgeous weather and scenery, even though the city dropped off Amazon's list this year.
John A. Roebling Suspension Bridge
Ohio is for lovers, yes, but this is a tale of two cities. Walk hand-in-hand along the bridge that connects Cincinnati (No. 6 on the list) to Covington, Kentucky. Feel free to stop for a bridge make-out session along the Ohio River.
Bricktown in Oklahoma City
Enjoy Oklahoma's wide-open skies through sunset with your loved one, then head to Bricktown to take a water taxi and enjoy this endearing city.
