Chelsey Writes-

"America truly is a melting pot — not only of people, but of places. And while this beautiful country is made up of some of the most beloved cities in the world — San Francisco, New York City, Chicago, and the list goes on — you might be surprised to find out that there's a whole lot going on outside of these giant metropolises. Small and secret American cities have an undeniable charm to them, and often a plethora of history that goes hand-in-hand — and I'm about to tell you about some of the best.

Small cities may be limited in size and population, but sometimes isn't that just what you're looking for? A weekend getaway to a tiny town can be refreshing, and with so many cool points of interest on the U.S. map, there's really no excuse not to go exploring. The United States is a playground of landscapes, and there is no shortage of deserts, forests, beaches, mountains, and plateaus to back that up. From the Pacific Northwest to Southern California, the steep slopes of New England to the sunny beaches of Florida, it's time to start experiencing America in all her glory, tiny towns and all."

8. St. Augustine, FL

Orlando and The Keys tend to steal most of Florida's tourist hype, keeping St. Augustine a well kept secret from most. This gem of a city was the oldest city that remained occupied by the Europeans in America, and you can certainly tell when taking in the Spanish-influenced design. Filled with old-world aesthetics and easy to travel by foot, this coastal city is a true beauty and one worth exploring.
