To figure out the most popular locations per state, the company claims it combed through TripAdvisor and then used the Instagram API to search hashtags related to those places. Not surprisingly, the most “Instagrammed” places are outdoors. Below is Busbud’s list of the most “Instagrammed” places by state (and the Canadian version can be found [here](https://www.busbud.com/blog/top-instagrammed-locations/ "undefined")):  Busbud Instagram also produces its own list of the [10 most geo-tagged places](http://time.com/3618002/most-instagram-places-2014/ "undefined") in the world based on how often they were chosen as the location of a photo, from the Dubai Mall in 10th place to Disneyland in Anaheim, California in first place. _Read next:_ [_Instagram Photographers to Follow in All 50 States_](http://time.com/instagram50/ "undefined") ```json [{"@context":"https://schema.org","@type":"NewsArticle","@id":"https://time.com/4070550/most-instagrammed-places-in-us-canada-busbud/","mainEntityOfPage":{"@type":"WebPage","@id":"https://time.com/4070550/most-instagrammed-places-in-us-canada-busbud/"},"headline":"These Are the 'Most Instagrammed' Places in America","datePublished":"2015-10-12T21:01:54.000Z","dateModified":"2026-05-11T04:46:54.082Z","description":"According to Busbud, a website that compares bus ticket prices","url":"https://time.com/4070550/most-instagrammed-places-in-us-canada-busbud/","keywords":["Newsfeed","Technology"],"thumbnailUrl":"","author":[{"@type":"Person","name":"TIME Staff","jobTitle":null,"url":"https://time.com/author/time-staff/"}],"articleSection":"","image":[],"publisher":{"@type":"Organization","name":"Time","url":"https://time.com/","logo":{"@type":"ImageObject","url":"https://time.com/images/logo.png","width":528,"height":156},"foundingDate":"March 3, 1923","sameAs":["https://www.facebook.com/time","https://www.instagram.com/time/?hl=en","https://twitter.com/time","https://www.pinterest.com/timemagazine"]}},{"@context":"https://schema.org","@type":"BreadcrumbList","itemListElement":[{"@type":"ListItem","position":1,"item":{"@id":"/tag/time-section-newsfeed/","name":"Newsfeed"}},{"@type":"ListItem","position":2,"item":{"@id":"https://time.com/4070550/most-instagrammed-places-in-us-canada-busbud/","name":"These Are the 'Most Instagrammed' Places in America"}}]},{"@context":"https://schema.org","@type":"VideoObject","name":"The CEO of Instagram on the The App’s First Photo Ever","description":"Five years ago today on July 16, 2010, Instagram CEO and co-founder Kevin Systrom took a picture of a dog in Mexico near a taco stand, with a guest appearance by his girlfriend’s foot.","thumbnailUrl":"https://cdn.jwplayer.com/v2/media/upg5cCmb/poster.jpg?width=720","uploadDate":"2015-10-01T15:24:06.000Z","contentUrl":"https://cdn.jwplayer.com/manifests/upg5cCmb.m3u8","embedUrl":"https://time.com/4070550/most-instagrammed-places-in-us-canada-busbud/","duration":"PT38S","potentialAction":{"@type":"SeekToAction","target":"https://time.com/4070550/most-instagrammed-places-in-us-canada-busbud/?jw_start={seek_to_second_number}","startOffset-input":"required name=seek_to_second_number"}}] ```
