LAKE MARTIN, Ala. – A new study shows the most Instagrammed locations over the U.S., and while the Grand Canyon, Empire State Building, and the Vegas strip seem like obvious answers in other states, Alabama’s Lake Martin was named the most photographed location in the Yellowhammer State.

Types of Instagram locations as well as state-specific popular Instagram locations were listed in blog from Busbud, a travel website that provides bus transportation.

Overall, the most popular locations to Instagram were national and state parks. Lake Martin in Alabama was one of four lakes that were the top Instagrammed locations in their states.
