local landmarks
Nearby notable places
Local landmarks are notable features of a particular area—buildings, monuments, natural formations, or other sites that residents use as reference points and visitors seek out.
The phrase often appears in tourism contexts: The walking tour highlights local landmarks.
What counts as a landmark varies by community; a beloved diner might be as significant locally as a historic courthouse.
