This place is definitely a local gem.  Rock City on the border of TN and GA is an unbelievable spot!

Great location with many photo opportunities.
This abandoned train depot was constructed by the State of Georgia in 1848, and is one of the oldest in Georgia.  The depot witnessed many important events during the Civil War; a speech by Confederate President Jefferson Davis in 1861; the Great Locomotive Chase of 1862; a Civil War battle; and the first headquarters of General William T. Sherman during his Atlanta Campaign.
nice swimming hole to walk around
