    I live in bethesda. its a nice town if you get over the fact that a certain, currently disliked game company (which shall remain nameless) presides nearby. however, for some odd reason, their offices are in the nearby town of rockville. also, there is a house in my neighborhood built by famous architect Frank Lloyd wright.

    Mine is known for it's outlet shops that were really popular in the 1980s. It's mostly abandoned now, and it's in the process of being torn down. There are still some shops, even some restaurants and a movie theater, though.

    Puławy, Poland.

    In the 18th century, the Czartoryski family, one of the most,,if not the most, influential noble families in Poland decided to settle there, and built two palaces, one of which I have right opposite the house. They held artistic and political meetings there (including the negotiations to elect the king they wanted, Stanisław August Poniatowski, and hosting very important 18th and 19th century scientists and artists), and founded Poland's first museum, making Puławy a rich guys' playground.

    After WWII, in the 1960s, when the traditional upper-class went virtually extinct, the socialist government decided to build a huge nitrogen works in Puławy, pretty much making it a factory working-class town and erecting tons of tower blocks to house the workers. Now, that factory is the EU's 2nd biggest nitrogen fertilizer factory, and 3/4s of my family members living in Puławy work or have worked there.

    We're also one of the main PiS strongholds, an important place in the calendar industry, and there's a Mars crater named after the town.

    Hmm.. well the place is pretty nice, think it's most known for the Sandia mountains n such, maybe Route 66 idk. But please do come! It's actually really nice especially when you have the best view of the mountains!
    Just avoid the sketchy areas of Albuquerque
