MONTGOMERY

THINGS WE LOVE

Heritage Hotspots Walk in the footsteps of worldchanging events. Montgomery was the cradle of the Confederacy and, a century later, the impetus of the Civil Rights Movement.

Fabulous Firsts Montgomery was the site of the Wright Brothers’ first civilian flying school and boasted the first electric streetcar system in the country.

Park Places Take a walk, fly a kite or just relax with a book at one of Montgomery’s multiple green spaces like Blount Cultural Park or Vaughn Road Park.

Sweet Treats Get a mouthful of sugary goodness at Louisa’s Bakery tucked away in Old Cloverdale and indulge in a peanut butter cupcake.

Warm Welcomes The friendly smiles of Montgomery people under-score the fact that manners matter here.

Hot Dog! Take a bite of history at Chris’ Hot Dogs, a local favorite that’s been serving tasty dogs in a signature sauce since 1917.

Plain Nuts Enjoy Montgomery’s Tucker Pecans. They taste great right out of the shell but even better smothered in chocolate.

Otter Nonsense Go wild at The Montgomery Zoo, with hundreds of animal species. Don’t miss the tigers, the elephants or the playful otters.

Crooner’s Caddy See the car in which country music superstar Hank Williams took his final ride at The Hank Williams Museum, home of the largest collection of Hank memorabilia found anywhere.

Shakespeare, Y’all Take in a play at one of the country’s most celebrated theatres, The Alabama Shakespeare Festival.

World-Class Entertainment The capital city continually draws big-name performers and shows with major star appeal, including musicians like Elton John.

Nightlife Pick up the pace with the excitement of The Alley, hub of the city’s entertainment district, right across from the Montgomery Convention Center.

River Rides Roll on down the Alabama River aboard the city’s very own riverboat, The Harriott II.

Cheesy Chow Do your taste buds a favor and fill up on a good-n-greasy cheeseburger from Hamburger King downtown.

Pass the Biscuits Catch a Montgomery Biscuits baseball game and a flying biscuit too at historic Riverwalk Stadium.

Chef Leo Maurelli, named the Alabama Chef of the Year in 2011, is at the helm in the kitchen at Central in downtown Montgomery, and he routinely whips up dishes full of fresh ingredients procured from local producers, including Gulf seafood and just-picked veggies and herbs from the E.A.T. South. His duck wontons got him to the finals in a national food competition, and his steak frites with local herb chimichurri is a must-try. Maurelli’s menu changes seasonally, in keeping with his farmto-fork philosophy, so you’re always guaranteed a great meal.
