We already know Arkansas is the best place in the states, but it’s always nice when one of our towns gets national recognition. One particular Arkansas area recently earned a top ten spot in MSN’s “29 Most Beautiful Places In The U.S.” Let’s stroll around this gorgeous national park and see what makes Hot Springs such a lovely place.

The Travel Channel, Priceline, Southern Living, USA Today, and now MSN have all agreed that Hot Springs needs to be on everyone's travel list.

There's no where else in the world that has a hot spring-fed brewery in a national park, the oldest bar in Arkansas, and a rich mafia-laced history.
