The capital of Alabama is known primarily for the role it played in the Civil Rights Movement, which is commemorated at the Civil Rights Memorial. Visitors often attend the Dexter Avenue King Memorial Church, where Martin Luther King, Jr. once preached. Today, Montgomery combines Old South charm with modern sophistication and cultural vitality. Visitors can cruise the Alabama River, attend the dog races at VictoryLand Greyhound Park, visit the first White House of the Confederacy, or stroll through the Orderman-Shaw Historic District, which depicts life in the 1850's. Montgomery also puts on a number of festivals. The most notable are the annual Alabama Shakespeare Festival at the State Theater and Jubilee City Fest, which celebrates art, music and sports. The Hank Williams Memorial is always a big draw. And, of course, the city's down-home Southern cooking makes many travelers fans of the South.
