Atlanta Links Directory and Travel Resources

(Atlanta, Georgia - GA, USA)

As the biggest state on the eastern side of the meandering Mississippi River, Georgia certainly comes with a huge choice of sightseeing opportunities. Dominating much of the state's northwesterly region, Atlanta is where a high percentage of those sights reside, many of which are extremely suitable for families, such as both the Georgia Aquarium and the World of Coca Cola.

Much effort and money has seen the urban core of Atlanta transformed into a noticeably more appealing and vibrant place. Many of the city's top attractions are understandably based here, in the heart of the action. For those drawn to politics, the Georgia State Capitol is certainly worth adding to any itinerary, while those more interested in paintings should pencil in a visit to the High Museum of Art. Piedmont Park is another appealing place to hang out in the city, with its beautiful Botanical Garden and seasonal Pride celebrations.
