If you have ever read about the US history, its most likely someone taught you that the first settlers were British Pilgrims that came to American territory on the Mayflower and landed on Plymouth Rock, near Boston.
Well, in this video you will see how your history teachers lied to you: the actual first colony in American Territory is THIS lovely city in Florida called St. Augustine! Its home to so many of America's oldest things: the oldest street, oldest house, the first ever hotel with electricity and running water, as well as Magnolia Avenue, the most beautiful street in the USA!
St Augustine Florida is definitely a HIDDEN GEM, everyone should visit!
Taking my 77 yr old friend to visit this month! It’s on her bucket list and we are St Augustine bound!!!
This is my hometown. When I was a child St. George Street was "town" where everyday shopping was done. It was dress shops, pharmacies, grocsry stores, furniture stores etc. It was also a street that could be driven on as well as drive through the city gate. My dad lived on St. George St. when he was a boy andhisdadhad a tropical fish stor and an antique shop there. It is indeed the oldest continuouslyoccupied city in the United States, not the oldest city.
How awesome! All the history of this place is simply astounding
One of my favorite cities! The Flagler Museum and Distillery are awesome 😎
Definitely loved it!
Great tour of St. Augustine. People tend to forget or ignore this history.
Thank you. Its very true, very few People know about this place, much less about its rich history!
St. Augustine is the oldest continuously occupied settlement in the United States.
Yes, exactly. I've never heard anyone say it was the first settlement.
@@kwyjibo33 I have heard many people say it’s the oldest city in the US, including the history books when I was in school, and a lot of people in St. Augustine. Pensacola was founded 7 years earlier.
You're is the best. Brief , but informative.
Our favorite place to visit a couple times a year for about 25 years. But our last several visits there we have been put off by all the bums/street people camping out along the Main Street, St. George street, or down by the bridge of Lions etc.
I stayed in Tallahassee, Gainesville, Jacksonville & here Summer ‘22. Every intersection, underpass, parking lot, you name it was full of homeless & panhandlers. I’ve never seen anything like it in FL 🤔
Thanks!... 🤩👍💖Super-Cool Beans Eli!...🙂I visited the Old Fort there last year👏...;but didn't go on the City Tour due to our time/scheduling constraints😕 ...Now, (🙏Thanks to Purely Walking!😝) I get to see, hear, [remotely] experience & learn what I missed!...👍🌻& "Yes", that little mall does indeed have the similar style/feel of the Quincy Market/Faneuil Hall in Boston!!! ...😯Also, Thks for the "shout-out"!💐...it was a real surprise!!!🎁🎆💞...✌
Im glad you enjoyed the tour, I loved this place so much I think the video didnt do it justice! The shout Out is well deserved, its the very least I can do!
St. Augustine is like a mix of South Carolina with New Orleans together. You couldn't tell the difference in pictures. Until you say the location. 😅
Seems like a beautiful, charming town! Thanks for the historical insight 👍
it is the only real issue is the crime and the amount of people that cant drive.. Every day someone is getting ran over. The need to change the speed limit to 5
@@SpaceRanger187 it pretty much is since it’s always crowded. Lived here all my life never seen or heard of anyone getting run over 💀
Kool just got to the end of da video. Thanks for da shout out. Keep up with the great content.
Thank YOU for being awesome!
Thanks!
Well, that's my exercise
for today.
Time for a nap.
Pensacola Florida was founded 7 years before St. Augustine. However it was temporarily abandoned so St. Augustine is the oldest continuously inhabited city in America. Also, IMDB shows all the locations for Forrest Gump and St. Augustine is not listed.
Very beautiful city 😍 I love it congratulations 👏🎉
Next time that you're in town, stop by to visit the Spanish Military Hospital Museum in Aviles Street (formerly Hospital Street, the oldest street in the U.S.). That section of town is the oldest and most picturesque. PS- You also need to stop by the Columbia Restaurant- nobody stops by the city without having the best Cuban fare in Florida!
Awesome, I definitely will! Thanks!
Cool video. I use to live in Florida and never knew about this place. I will definitely go.
Omg you will NOT regret it! It was awesome
Loved the video (:
I'm so glad you enjoyed it!!
6:55 that fresh lemonade is actually really good if you didn't get it I highly recommend it next time. Also Scarlet O'Hara's bar and tavern is really good. Plus if you do the late night paranormal investigation tour at the old jailhouse I highly recommend it as well. Tell the works at the old jailhouse AR Paranormal sent you. They will love it.
Awww thanks!
Np and truly great video
This video is great and Old Trolley Tours is the best!! I am just a normal guy who loves the city too
Thank you and Yes they are!!
My family was one of the first families to come to Saint Augustine in 1565. What’s the best thing to see there to find something of them I’m wanting to go maybe during the summer when I’m off work and the kids are out of school
I think the first thing you should do is take the trolley tour and see for yourself all the stops and interesting sites, that way you pick and choose where to get off and explore
We live less than 45 minutes from there. There is so much to see and do and eat.
Yessssss! I really loved it!
I’ve traveled all over and SA is my favorite town!
I can tell why; its definitely awesome
Not Quincy Market, The Arcade in Providence.
never been! sounds like a good place to visit!
i love this town
Me too
St. Augustine wasn't the 1st American Settlement.
America had became a Settlement after many European wars who fought for the land.
St. Augustine was the 1st European Spainard settlement.
So don't get it twisted!
GATE RIVER RUN!
I saw a bum
New Smyrna was settled here in Florida before St Augustine was..
What! Records show that New Smyrna was started as a plantation 200 years AFTER St. A was settled.
