Day Trip From Augusta: Juliette, GA 2hr 10min

This Day Trip From Augusta: Juliette, GA 2hr 10min falls under the "where movies were filmed" category.

The 90's classic Fried Green Tomatoes was filmed here, and the main street still resembles the movie set. In the movie, the town was Whistle Stop, Alabama. In reality, it's Juliette, Georgia.

According to Roadtrippers-

The 90s classic "Fried Green Tomatoes" is based on a novel called "Fried Green Tomatoes at the Whistle Stop Café.” While Whistle Stop isn't a real town, the cafe is very much a real place. When location scouting for the movie, producers chose the little town of Juliette, Georgia, to star as Whistle Stop and remade an old hardware and antique store to use as the cafe. Once filming finished, Juliette locals decided to turn the old building into a real-life Whistle Stop Cafe. It serves up barbecue and, of course, fried green tomatoes in a totally adorable setting that will make you feel like you've stepped back into Whistle Stop in the 1930s.

I took these pictures while traveling through the area on my way to South Carolina. If you get a chance, this is a great place to visit and not that far from Augusta.
