Georgia has always inspired images of Southern hospitality, but Georgia offers much more than that. In the state capital of Atlanta there is the Atlanta History Centre and the Stone Mountain Park. In the southern parts of Georgia there is the Ocmulgee National Monument and the Museum of History in Macon and August respectively. There are many opportunities for travellers staying in Georgia. Savannah offers a little know Golden Islands off of coastal Georgia that has a very semi-tropical paradise like atmosphere. To get to these items you can take a ferry from Brunswick. 

The state capital in Atlanta offers a very unique experience. The city is both historical in nature while still remaining a very contemporary city. There are many sites to visit and see in Atlanta including the magnificent twenty-one-acre Olympic Park where the Summer Olympics was held in 1996. Atlanta also offers planetarium shows at the Fernbank Science Centre which also has the Fernbank Natural History Museum on the same site. Although if you are into history than an excellent place to visit in Atlanta is the Martin Luther King Jr. National Historic Site. 

Near five million people travel to Savannah every year and it is no wonder since it offers a wide selection of parks, landmarks and attractions for the traveller. The best way to see Savannah is by simply walking around the city although there is also the option of taking a boat or trolley tour. A collection of squares encompasses a historic district in the downtown area. This historic area has been well preserved and is currently one of the largest historic districts in the United States. Savannah also offers an excellent selection of mansions and museums to visit during your stay. 

Atlanta and Savannah offer a great selection of hotels. In Atlanta the best option is the Ansely Inn which is a very nice mansion that has been turned into a small-scale European style inn. This hotel is an excellent option for those who want first rate accommodations, service and amenities for an affordable price. In Savannah an excellent option is 17 hundred 90 which is one of the oldest inns in Savannah and is like a house building in eighteenth century New England. Although the inn has been said to be haunted, so if this isn’t your type of thing then you may want to look for another hotel. Although for many individuals they won’t stay anywhere else when visiting Savannah. 

No visit to Georgia is complete without visiting the Chattahoochee National Park at least once. Driving U.S. Route 76 offers one of the best scenic routes in Georgia between Ellijay and Clayton. This route started back in the twenties and thirties when much of the land in this area was purchased by the federal government. As a result, today you can experience a part of the southern Appalachian culture.
