Mesmerizing colors, mild temperatures, and fewer crowds are but some of autumn's travel bounty. Our ten favorite fall destinations will help you make the most of this vibrant season, whether you're a leaf-peeper, a wine-taster, or a city lover, with two premier wine regions to sample; a national park to explore; a trio of states loaded with apple orchards and sublime autumnal scenery; and no fewer than six of the world's most fascinating urban centers. Indeed, it's not all about fall foliage and hay rides at this time of year, though they do figure prominently. With summer highs (and prices) coming down, the season is equally tailor-made for a big-city visit, at home and abroad.
