Explore Alabama's regions of diverse culture and geography

North, AL

Amazing views with a soundtrack to go along.

The southern Appalachians stretch across this portion of the state. It’s where some of music’s biggest stars were born and where others were made after they recorded their hits in the local studios. Here, you can gaze up at the cosmos from scenic vistas or go learn from those who’ve actually been there themselves at the US Space & Rocket Center in Huntsville.

Central, AL

Right in the middle of it all.

Let’s start with Birmingham. It’s the state’s largest city and has everything that comes along with it. Nightlife, shopping, dining...there’s something for everyone here, and it’s a great hub for visiting other parts of the state. The central region of Alabama is also home to the Tide in Tuscaloosa and the Talladega Superspeedway, NASCAR’s longest track. This beautiful portion of the state is well-known to fans of the Auburn Tigers, but it’s also a must-stop destination for those who love literature and history.

If you like beaches, you might as well go to the best.
