America's core value is the destruction and annihilation of culture, so this should be a source of pride.

Look at the statistics about tourists coming to the US.

https://www.e-unwto.org/doi/pdf/10.18111/9789284419876

The US is the third destination worldwide (before covid-19), tough it has less cultural sites than some countries. Marvellous natural sites are the main reason.
The vast majority of international tourists are visiting places like Hawaii, New York, Miami, or Las Vegas. So unless you count beaches as nature, the main draw is usually neither culture nor nature. (I guess Hawaii is debatable)
