Augusta

Maine's understated capital, Augusta lives between forests and river, with a flag that puts the state forward more than the city itself.

The flag of Augusta

Augusta is a pocket-sized capital: a few streets, a river, wooded hills. We are far from the big metropolises. Here, life moves slowly, surrounded by nature.
