The Montgomery Museum of Fine Arts is one of the oldest museums in the state of Alabama. With that distinction comes the facility's equally impressive collection of American paintings and sculpture. You'll also find an equally notable collection of Old Master prints, southern regional art, as well as several pieces of eye-catching decorative arts. There are also several traveling exhibits and attractions that add to the overall scope of the work that is presented here. Additionally, the museum is situated on beautiful grounds, adjacent to an inviting lake; so after you take in the fine artwork inside, enjoy some natural beauty during your visit, too.
Some of Montgomery's most beautiful natural amenities await you when you escape the daily hustle and bustle to enjoy some time outdoors at Gunter Hill Park. This popular campground features expansive green meadows that are populated with beautiful, shady trees and other foliage that overlooks the waters of the Alabama River. The park is a very popular fishing destination, so make sure you have plenty of bait to reel in that big one!
Montgomery does have its share of the unexpected, and a prime example of that is the MOOseum. Sponsored by the Alabama Cattlemen's Association, this free educational center is located near the State Capitol and utilizes videos, exhibits and pieces of memorabilia to underscore the importance of cows and cattle. The back half of the museum attraction features a big amusement area that has a play kitchen, rodeo gear and saddles and a big stuffed cow. The kids will just love it!
Strike out for an excellent time at Montgomery's Bama Lanes. Aside from the state-of-the-art bowling lanes and scoring system, this fun facility features a pro shop, concession stand, video arcade, and a great lounge with karaoke and pocket billiards, too.
