Boaz

photo The factory outlet stores in Boaz, Ala., are a popular destination.

Stop off Interstate 59 and visit a newly renovated downtown known for antique shopping and Southern charm.

Boaz is a close-knit community.

But step out of your car and find a town with tasty restaurants, frequent celebrations like the annual Antique Tractor Show and a fall beauty show.

Drive five miles down the road and visit a North Alabama vineyard and winery for a blend of sweet and savory wines grown locally on Sand Mountain.
