Valdosta is a beautiful and historical city in southern Georgia whose story goes back to the 1800’s. It is known as the “Azalea City” for the vibrantly colored azaleas that thrive in the area, which are celebrated each year in March during the Azalea Festival. Home to one of Georgia’s four universities, Valdosta State University was founded in 1993 – go Blazers! Another exciting attraction that Valdosta has to offer is the Dedo Maranville Fine Arts Gallery, where exhibits from students to national artists can be viewed and enjoyed by all. There is also Wile Adventures Theme Park, which houses 170 acres of rides, slides, and exotic animals, and was voted #3 Most Affordable Amusement Park in the U.S. by Travel + Leisure.
