Alabama
Alabama's beauty, history, culture and adventure
The famed "Sweet Home Alabama" is more than a song. It’s a land of history, culture, music and adventure on landscapes ranging from beaches to mountains. Locally owned restaurants dish out meals of mouth-watering barbecue and fresh seafood from fishing villages. Museums cover everything from the Civil Rights Movement and legendary music to fast cars and faster spacecraft. You’ll find it all in the heart of the southeastern USA. Montgomery and Birmingham are a 2.5-hour drive from Atlanta, Georgia. Mobile and the beaches of Gulf Shores are about the same distance from New Orleans, Louisiana. The Alabama cities of Florence, Muscle Shoals and Huntsville are only a few hours’ drive from Nashville, Tennessee.
