Best Places to Visit in Georgia

Located on the state’s central eastern border is Augusta, Georgia’s second biggest city after Atlanta with a population that is continually rising year after year. Augusta is internationally recognized as the famous host of one of golf’s most important professional championships, The Masters Tournament. Thousands of people gather at the August National Golf Club, considered by many to be the most prestigious and immaculate lawn in the sport. Even now, fans are assessing golf betting odds in preparation for this year’s competition at the start of April. This gorgeous venue is one of the world’s most exclusive clubs with impeccable service like you’ve never had and an atmosphere all its own.

While the city may be most celebrated for its role in The Masters, there are plenty of other things to do in the southern locale for non-golf enthusiasts as well. Augusta boasts a beautiful and diverse downtown area where the main strip, Broad Street, is filled with local artistic shops and businesses as well as lively restaurants which serve up traditional, southern cuisine all year round. Visitors can also walk along the city’s Riverwalk that overlooks the Savannah River. If you’re looking for a modern, yet traditional Georgia city that is rich in history and soul, Augusta should be at the top of your list. In fact, the “Godfather of Soul” himself, James Brown, was raised here in the 1930’s during the Great Depression and second World War. Walk in the same places as the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame singer while chowing down on a local specialty, the pimento cheese sandwich, and you are sure to have the full Augusta, Georgia experience.
