Helen is a city located on the Chattahoochee River in White County in the north of the U.S. state of Georgia.
As of the 2000 census, the city's population was 430.
Formerly a logging town, the city resurrected itself by becoming a replica of a Bavarian alpine town,
in the Appalachians instead of the Alps.
Tourism is the main industry in Helen, catering mostly to weekend visitors from the Atlanta area.
Helen is extremely crowded in late October, when autumn leaves typically peak.
It also hosts its own Oktoberfest during September, October and November.
There are many events and festivals throughout the year.
One of the most well known is the annual hot air balloon race, which is held the first weekend in June each year.
