Recently I traveled to the wonderful city of Montgomery Alabama to visit an artist friend of mine and her husband who is the US Marines.
It had been years since I had visited that area, so I really didn’t know what to expect.
What I found was wonderful! This city is the capital of the beautiful state of Alabama. I was first concerned that the city would be as big as the capital of the state I live in which is Georgia. However, what I found was a very well laid out city, with very easy to navigate roads.
If you visit this wonderful city, make sure to see the breathtaking art museum. The Montgomery art museum has a wonderful collection of art that is permanent plus have visiting exhibits that offer an added plus in your art viewing experience.
There is also a wonderful on-site gift shop which offers tons of wonderful items, however, I found them to be rather costly and wasn’t willing to purchase anything from the gift shop.
Situated beside the art museum is a performing arts house which produces performances of Shakespeare plays several times throughout the year.
Both the museum and the performing arts center is situated on a beautiful expanse of wonderful green lawns and lakes. The property alone is a site for the eyes and heart.
Besides the museum this city offers a wide assortment of wonderful restaurants to try. Some offer local cuisine and others offer more of an international selection of dishes, one in particular is an excellent Italian restaurant.
I will be returning again for sure!
