It is amazing that sometimes the most unique, classically rich cities and towns in the state of Georgia simply fall under the radar. A shame really, when you see just what type of history and culture come out of such a place. We have one such city that seems to be overlooked every tourist season, but little do they know, they’re missing out on a truly unique city experience. Take a look at why we love Rome, Georgia oh-so-very much.
