Jacksonville (Florida, USA)

With a population of 1.1 million, Jacksonville is the largest city in northern Florida and has the largest area of any city in Continental USA. It is just a few kilometres from the Atlantic on the shores of the St. John River in northern Florida. The beautiful port was named after the president, Andrew Jackson. Although it is not well known as a German tourist destination, the city has more to offer than just about any other city in the USA and is among the top-10 places to live in America. Sights include the Fort Caroline National Memorial, the Cummer Gallery of Art, the art museum and the zoo. The city is divided in two by St. Johns River - a beautiful if somewhat eccentric river that flows from South to North - creating some very picturesque vistas. Jacksonville Landing, a kind of market place and recreational centre direct by the river with boutiques and restaurants, as well as many other first rate attractions, help encourage visitors to the city.
