The Augusta Museum of History features exhibits on golf and the life of soul singer James Brown. A Riverwalk along the Savannah River also leads to the town&#8217;s parks and gardens. The Morris Museum of Art focuses on the art of the American South. The Boyhood Home of President Woodrow Wilson depicts the early years of the 28th president. A trail spanning the 1845 canal is a popular attraction.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The Augusta Canal is another attraction. This 18th century industrial canal has been in operation since the 1800s. It is a popular attraction, and visitors can enjoy boat tours of the canal or stroll along the scenic tow path. A visit to the historic town of downtown provides an opportunity to experience the town&#8217;s rich history and beautiful architecture. And if you&#8217;re a golf fan, you won&#8217;t want to miss the Masters Tournament, which takes place here every year.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The Woodrow Wilson Museum in Augusta is another popular attraction. Located in a state park, the museum features exhibits from famous artists. The building, which was built in 1859, is a National Historic Landmark, and is home to many historic homes. During the Civil War and the Revolutionary War, Augusta was a crucial location. In the former, it was the site of the Confederate Powderworks, which was later torn down. The cotton boom of the 19th century turned the city into the second largest cotton market in the world.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>For those who love water, you can take a trip down the Augusta Canal. Although it isn&#8217;t exactly exciting, the five-mile trip down the canal is still relaxing and enjoyable. The historic homes and gardens along the Canal make for a perfect escape from a busy, stressful life. However, keep in mind that the city can become busy on special events and summer weekends, but life in Augusta is slow, easy, and stress-free.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>During the day, the temperature in the city is moderate. The town is a popular destination for families visiting the St. Louis area. During the winter months, temperatures may be cold and damp, while summers are hot and humid. Regardless of the time of year, the climate in Augusta is pleasant. Its mild climate means that it has a temperate climate, but it isn&#8217;t always that cool. A warm, sunny day in Augusta can cause the body to sweat or lose moisture.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Broad Street is a great place for families to visit. The town&#8217;s historic buildings are rich in character and offer a variety of restaurants and entertainment options. In addition to restaurants, Augusta offers numerous wineries. If you&#8217;re a music lover, you should not miss the Symphony Orchestra Augusta. It is located halfway up the Savannah River, making it the perfect day-trip destination. It also features charming shops, several wineries, and terrific recreational opportunities.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Visitors to Augusta can enjoy several museums and attractions.
