Sweet Home Alabama, song from Lynnyrd Skynnyrd might makes you feel welcome to this state. Scenes from the movies like Forest Gump and The War show simple lives of the country boys. Anyhow, scenes from civil right movement pictures give you another point of view. Montgomery, the birthplace of civil war and civil right movement, is a very quiet capital and looks peaceful today. There are lots of historical sites, i.e. old Alabama town.
