Pssst...when saying Des Moines, BOTH "s" are silent. 😉🤓

[noahmiller]

The way she said maquoketa nearly gave me an aneurism.

From Australia I saw an electoral reference to Iowa.
Its attractions and architecture are surprisingly beautiful and sometimes quirky though I imagine its cornfields would be a bore.
What a little treasure state it is. It looks orderly and peaceful.

Drop the "s" for Des Moines 😊

[vilstef]

Mackokaita!?! A really hilarious mispronunciation.

[stormlakebobcat]

The grotto of the redemption is awesome. 😊

[drewcoowoohoo]

"Despite its more diverse population?"
Ringing endorsement.

This soundtrack is a sample of what Artificial Intelligence may bring to narrations of all sorts. A brief phone call to the Iowa tourist bureau would have enabled all of the names to be pronounced correctly. At least, she didn't sound both esses in Des Moines.

Supreme Court of Iowa is not in the Capitol building. It's in a smaller building on the south side of the capital complex.

"You can enjoy the campgrounds, pavilions, restrooms..." 🤣

[alanstrong]

Backbone State Park caught my attention. It is still good today.

[joanneyarwood]

Hey you left out Pelli, Iowa the tulip festival and the Beauty of Decorah Iowa

[kimschleiger]

Thank you for your time and resources that you spent to make this video.

[crackerbarrel]

Reminds me of the billboard: “Welcome to Iowa. We hope you brought something to do”.

[kenvandevoort]

I liked the trestle trail bridge better when I saw one of the first Milwaukee trains cross it after it was built.

[Kammwiththecam]

Future reference it’s pronounced “MA” KO” KETA I am a from iowa I got you fam

[suethomas]

Just an FYI, both s in Des Moines are silent.

[poksnee]

You really butchered the word Maquoketa.

[kathlake]

The dome is covered with real gold leaf. Loess (less) Hills Keo-kuk'. Mah-ko'-keht-ah.
