St. Augustine, Florida
It's no surprise that walking through St. Augustine feels like taking a step back in time. Founded in 1565 by the Spanish, it's the longest continually inhabited European-founded city in the country. And visitors to St. Augustine will still sense that Spanish influence. There's the waterfront fortress, Castillo de San Marcos, lots of Spanish Colonial architecture, and beautifully landscaped parks like you might find in Andalusia. And you might just feel like you've been transported to Barcelona as you explore the sandy shoes and coastline.

Helen, GA used to be a worthwhile place to visit back in the 70's and 80's but now it just looks like a run down tourist trap.
