Bradenton, Manatee, Florida, USA
The Bradenton area was first settled by the Timucuan Indians, who, according to legend, named the Manatee River for the gentle sea cows that slowly swim through its inlets. In the early 1600s, the Spanish explorer Hernando de Soto and his crew discovered this seemingly uninhabited area while seeking gold. Instead of gold, they found fertile riverbanks, lush landscapes and breathtaking beauty.
