Upon settling in Georgia recently, the Fairyland Caverns at Lookout Mountain in "Rock City" Georgia caught my eye right away.
The description of this magical place says it all; "Welcome to Rock City, a family-friendly mountaintop attraction on Lookout Mountain where gardens, hidden gnomes, ancient rock formations, and panoramic seven-state views unfold like a living storybook of outdoor wonder."
There are plenty of gnomes, art displayed in the gardens, amazing views, magical pathways, seasonal events, and amazing rock formations.
I admit, now that I'm in Georgia, it will take a lifetime to explore the state and its offerings, but there is something inspiring and magical about the landscape that lends itself to gnomes and fairies - all beautiful counterpoints to the painful history forged by a very strong and proud people.
