State: Georgia
Beautiful Place? Town Of Helen
,
This little town would probably look more at home in Germany’s Bavaria than in northern Georgia, but you’ll find it hidden away in the state’s Blue Ridge Mountains.
The town’s half-timbered buildings, dinky shops, and mountainous surroundings add to the feel that you’re on the Continent.
You’ll feel as though you’ve been transported to the cobblestone streets of Germany’s renowned Lindau as colorful shops speckle the landscape and the heavenly aroma of some sort of authentic German fare takes to the breeze.
Helen’s lively Oktoberfest has also been a leading event for more than four decades.

None of these are in my state. I was looking forward to seeing 11 beautiful places I did not know were in my state. Maryland!
I’ve been at White Sands National Park 2 times. I’m from Illinois so driving on the roads through there, it was like driving after a big snow storm. The sand dunes are very high. We had snow saucers. We had to wax them up real good then we went down like we were on snow. Beautiful… God made!!!
