Home to the legendary James Brown, Augusta is one of the foremost cities in Georgia, and home to almost 200,000 residents. The 113th biggest city in the United States, The Garden City is also the permanent home to the US Masters, golf's foremost annual event and one of the majors, hosted by the PGA at Augusta every year.
The city of Augusta itself is home to a variety of cultural attractions with cross-age appeal, including the Augusta Museum of History and the celebrated Gertrude Herbert Institute of Art, which remains popular with visitors to the city.
No trip to Augusta could be complete without the mention of golf, and as the host of the US Masters, Augusta is understandably big on golf. There are a number of popular courses around the city, many of which are open to the public, and the warm climate and dense location of courses in and around the city makes Augusta perfect for golfing breaks throughout the year.
