Probably California.
Not going to bother with a pic.
Edit: Wait, are we talking people or landscape? I was answering for people.

I can't decide if Yellowstone or the Grand Canyon is more beautiful.
lol I also thought OP was talking about people. Either way, it's definitely not Indiana.

I'm obviously biased but Wisconsin has some gorgeous areas.
I want to say my home state of Virginia but it absolutely cannot be encompassed with a single image. From the Chesapeake Bay itself, to the wonderful marshlands and beaches connected to it, to the Blue Ridge Mountains and the Shenandoah Valley, or rich forests throughout.... the auburn trees in Autumn or fiery landscapes of Spring.... the rivers and ponds.... a single image does none of it justice.

It's not as impressive as huge waterfalls/mountain ranges, but fall in Wisconsin can be quite beautiful.

Did you delete my "wait maybe not?"
Yeah I figured it wasn't Alabama, after looking at their top ten which number one was a picture of a normal brick building. hahaha

Rather surprising to most, I'd argue that NY State could make a case for itself. Everyone kindof forgets about the Adirondacks.

Anywhere in the Pacific Northwest. I would just say Washington because it's where I live. But it's amazing in general out here.

Really you think Phoenix is boring, can you explain please, I stayed in Tempe for half a year and it was so much fun compared to ohio
Lets be honest, most every state in the US is beautiful. It just depends on whether you prefer forests over deserts, lakes over rivers, yada yada. That's one thing I love about people who visit the US for the first time and realize its more than its famous cities and attractions and has some gorgeous places to visit all over. Even NJ which people shit on a lot has some absolutely beautiful state parks, the Pine Barrens are great!
But I'm going to go with Hawaii, really want to move back some day.

all its missing is a rich snob driving a car with a "Jersey Girls don't pump gas" bumper sticker

Thanks to Sopranos, I associate Pine Barrens with dead bodies.
They also have a great form of moonshine called Applejack. That stuff will put hair on your chest and a jackhammer in your skull.

Does it have to be contiguous US? If not, Hawaii for sure, especially Kauai.

All ad colorado in for the thread. Picture I took a few years back.
You should try doing the tubing tours in the old sugar cane canals. You go through tunnels, down small little "waterfalls" and such. Really fun and pretty cool if you can bring a gopro with you.
Lol. This fucking guy.
Gotta agree with this.California has a wide variety of beautiful things. We have beaches, redwoods, desert, Yosemite, etc. All within a few hours.
Here's a picture of Big Sur, along Pacific Coast Highways (one of the best drives you can take):
