Why are "places" special to you?

The last three posts here were very long and a little conceptually dense. This one will be short. There's not a lot of traffic on this blog but, if you stop by, please comment if you have the time.

What does "sense of place" means to you? 
What are some of your favorite places? 
Why does "place" matters in your life. 

To me, sense of place is a very broad term. Perhaps it is even too broad to garner any meaningful definition. Significant places for me are the Driftless Area of the Upper Mississippi River valley, the desert southwest, and other special places I've visited and thoroughly enjoyed such as Paris, western Germany, the Yucatan Peninsula, and northwestern Ontario.
