Been there. Quite an experience, especially if you’re a photographer.
Been there too. Somewhere I have a photo of me standing in all four states.
I also have a photo of me at the Greenwich Observatory, with one foot in each hemisphere.
I’ve also been to Èze, the medieval village high on a mountain top in the French Riviera. Stunning views of the Mediterranean.
Anyone else been in the Hundertwasserhaus in Vienna?
On top of the Pyramid of Queen Henutsen in Giza.
I partied in the hotel room Jim Morrison lived in off Sunset Blvd. Lots of people have been there, but many might not have known.
I have been in my kitchen and none of you have so nyahh, nyahh, nyahh.
Or, maybe, that’s what we want you to think.

I would guess few other dopers, if any, have been:
to Winnekenni Castle
to the Woodman Museum
to the International Cryptozoology Museum
The Tower Records in Tachikawa, Japan. I’ve been to many record stores in my life, and this one is still my favorite. I can’t remember the names of these next places, but while in Sicily I went to an abbey that had catacombs with the bones of hundreds of past monks mummified and laid to rest on shelves inside. Also, there was a restaurant built into a cliff, right out of the rock, that was particularly excellent.
The pyroclastic flow from Mt. Pinatubo in the Philippines. As well as watching repatriated remains of US Soldiers come across the DMZ at Camp Bonifas.
The only Irish pub in South Korea at the Time, O’Kim’s at the top of the Westin Chosun hotel in Seoul, though now I believe its a chain throughout the peninsula,
Inside the reactor compartment of a U.S. Navy nuclear power plant.
…while it was shut down, of course.
(The reactor compartment is the portion of the power plant that is within the secondary shield, and contains the shielded reactor vessel itself. While at power, this area is strictly off limits and sealed.
The hatch looks like a gigantic lead cork, and the viewing windows are a deep amber color from the thickness and special stuff in the glass.)
My specialty was referred to as an ELT (Engineering Laboratory Technician) and we were responsible for the plant chemistry and radiation safety. As part of the second aspect, we were the ones who set up the control point through which folks accessed the reactor compartment during shutdown.
There are other Navy nukes on this board, and they surely visited the reactor compartment at least once during their qualifications.
On a FDNY fire boat. I was a Boy Scout from Putnam County and the troop was down in the city for sightseeing; the boat crew gave us a tour while moored.
French Azilum – and multiple visits there.
Not only have I been to Trundle Manor but I know the owners
And while it is no longer there I worked at Hanson’s Amusement Park at Harvey’s Lake PA. That may be a unique-to-me as well although using something gone before most of you were born … feels cheap. Now get off my lawn before I shake my cane at you again. 
The Orton Plantation Gardens, outside Wilmington, North Carolina; “Firestarter,” with young Drew Barrymore, was filmed there. Boring as sin, but imagining the place being fire bombed telepathically by a small blond girl was amusing. Now permanently closed.
Roadside America, Shartlesville, Pennsylvania: an indoor, 1-acre miniature village representing small-town America. Buttons to push, model trains to watch, tiny animals moving about, lighted buildings; at (the village’s) nighttime, you get, “God Bless America,” by Kate Smith blaring across the town and projected images of The Flag and the Statue of Liberty. A real hoot! Apparently, my grandfather (died 1975) was there in his late 30s/early 40s.
The top floor of the Old Post Office. Before Trump took control of the building, the GSA used the top floor for storage; access was via an extremely slow hydraulic elevator which only government employees could use.
The one in South Dakota? Been there. I liked the sign on the door to the control room that said “Delivery in under 30 minutes, guaranteed.” 
I paddled there in the 80s, but I’ve not swum there. In fact, one of my paddling club’s T-shirts read I’d rather die than swim!
Fun place: I’ve been all over Newfoundland, and one of my favorite places was the Elliston puffin colony. It’s windy and some of trails are narrow; don’t fall off one of the cliffs.
Not so fun place: the Navy’s SERE school in Brunswick, Maine. Thankfully I was an employee visiting from headquarters and not a participant. That would have been even less fun.
Interesting place: Davis-Besse nuclear plant. Back when I visited nuclear powered plants were considered the wave of the future and I remember being impressed with how clean the plant was. Fast-forward to now, and I was kind of surprised to learn that Ohio has decided to subsidize it and the Perry plant to keep them open longer.
I’ve also been on the USS Theodore Roosevelt as a guest for a day trip and toured the USS Iowa shortly beforethe accident.
I’ve been to the very top of the Dome at Johns Hopkins Hospital. It’s where you get to go when you complete your advanced internal medicine clerkship as a student. Or at least it was, back in the early 1980’s.
Lovely view! Rather breezy but sunny the day I was up there.
Me too. And 5 other MIT buildings. It’ll be 6 others when the new high rise in in Kendall Square (the really new one, not the the two are already structurally complete - I’ve been on both of those, too) gets topped off.
Española Island, the uninhabited southernmost island in the Galapagos.
Interesting thread. Thanks Chefguy. I haven’t been to any places upthread, except For these: I’ve been to San Marino, Four Corners, and Èze. And Srebrenik Fortress in Bosnia and Herzegovina, I drove past it but did not go to it.
I’ve been to Tawitawi Island in the Philippines. It’s nearly the southernmost point in the Philippines.
I’ve been through the Hum Border Crossing, in Hum, Bosnia and Herzegovina.
I’ve been to all 50 states + DC (USA).
I’ve been to Hell, Norway in the winter — Hell was frozen over.
I’ve been in the USMC caves near Trondheim, Norway, the caves that are part of the Marine Corps Prepositioning Program-Norway.
I’ve been to Campo Pachico, Baja California Sur, Mexico (gMap), on the San Ignacio Lagoon for whale watching, and have been less than 1 foot from gray whales there (I did not quite touch one).
I’ve been to the Misión San Javier near Loreto, Baja, Mexico.
I’ve driven the entire length of the Baja peninsula round trip, twice, from San Diego CA USA down to Cabo San Lucas and back.
In Utah, I’ve driven the 90 miles on the old Central Pacific Railroad Grade, on the Transcontinental Railroad Backcountry Byway, from the Golden Spike National Historic Site over to Lucin UT.
In Iowa I’ve walked out to the plane crash site in the cornfield where Buddy Holly, Ritchie Valens, and The Big Bopper died on The Day The Music Died (2/3/1959).
From Battery Spencer in the Marin Headlands north of San Francisco I hiked and climbed south and east, down to walk under the north end of the Golden Gate Bridge.
Let’s see.
In Venezuela:
The Spluga (or Splugen) Pass between Italy and Switzerland.
La Specola Museum in Florence.
The Richard F Caris Mirror Lab at the University of Arizona. Also the Zoology and Herpetology collections at the U of A.
Casa Malpais in Springerville, Arizona.
The Garst Museum in Greenville, Ohio. Excellent little local museum with a large section on Annie Oakley.
I’ve also been to the Golden Spike Museum!
