Best views in the country? USA TODAY chose these North Jersey spots

Everyone has their own interpretation of what they'd consider to be a beautiful view. But there are just some places that are so breathtaking that they seem to catch the eye of everyone they visit. The Garden State is filled with scenic destinations like this, and so much so that three locations in North Jersey were named among USA Today's Most Treasured Views in America, part of a new USA TODAY network project showcasing breathtaking — and perhaps, under-appreciated — views throughout the United States. These are some of the most beautiful landmarks, scenic vistas and hidden gems you can truly treasure in your area. And these sites highlight the diverse range of scenery North Jersey has to offer, ranging from rich historical sites to impressive natural spots. Here are three of the Most Treasured Views in North Jersey, with tips for getting the best experience at each site.

Marriott's Mid-Market Push, Apple's Travel Updates and Google's AI Tools

On today's pod we look at Marriott's cheaper room push, Apple's new tools for travelers, and Google's rapidly changing marketing landscape. Skift Daily Briefing Podcast Listen to the day's top travel stories in under four minutes every weekday. Listen to the day's top travel stories in under four minutes every weekday. Skift Travel Podcasts Good morning from Skift. It's Tuesday, June 10. Here's what you need to know about the business of travel today. Marriott recently opened its first mid-market extended-stay hotel, a milestone in its push to attract budget-conscious travelers seeking apartment-style accommodations, writes Senior Hospitality Editor Sean O'Neill. The StudioRes property in Fort Myers, Florida — which includes studio-style rooms, full kitchens, and designated work areas — will pit Marriott against established players like Extended Stay America and Choice Hotels. StudioRes targets a $100-per-night point for guests staying multiple nights. Marriott has plans for 40 more StudioRes properties through 2027. O'Neill notes extended stay hotels represent one of hospitality's fastest-growing categories, driven in part by hybrid work trends and the rising consumer preference for home-like accommodations. Listen to This Podcast Apple Podcasts | Spotify | Youtube | RSS Next, Apple unveiled several travel-related upgrades — most notably digital U.S. passports and live translation for messages and calls — during its Worldwide Developers Conference keynote on Monday, writes Travel Technology Reporter Justin Dawes. Apple announced that the digital passport would be coming to the iPhone's digital Wallet starting this fall. An Apple executive said that while not a replacement for a physical passport, the digital ID can be used for domestic travel at supported TSA checkpoints and in person where age and identity verification are required. Apple is also integrating live translation into the apps for Messages, FaceTime, and Phone. The company said AI can generate spoken translation between two people speaking different languages during calls on the Phone app — even if one of the people isn't using an iPhone. Finally, Skift Research's latest research report examines how Google's use of AI tools in its search platform is disrupting travel marketing. Head of Research Seth Borko writes Skift Research had predicted in 2023 that AI would have its biggest impact on travel in search, but take the longest to arrive. In the past six months, 'AI visibility' — the frequency with which travel-related searches return AI-generated results — has quadrupled. Borko adds that Gemini has launched on Google's search engine results page in the form of AI-generated summaries that help answer queries in a contextual manner and with a conversational tone, a significant shift away from the traditional keyword approach.
