The US state of Georgia demonstrates the very best of Southern hospitality. The cities here are jam packed with great nightlife, dining choices, and cosmopolitan shopping experiences.

Things to Do in Georgia

Affectionately known as 'The ATL', the capital city of Atlanta is certainly worthy of a visit while traveling through the state of Georgia. The city is home to a vibrant nightlife scene, ample shopping districts, and restaurants that will spoil travelers with choices during their time here. Animal lovers will enjoy a visit to the Atlanta Aquarium. The aquarium is one of the largest in the country and is home to a phenomenal 120,000 species; a chance to get up close and personal with deep sea creatures that most never even knew existed! Atlanta is also a scenic city, with lots of beautiful parks and green open spaces within its limits. Centennial Olympic Park and the Atlanta Botanical Gardens are both well worth a visit and are pleasant places to spend an afternoon. The former is a great place for a family picnic.

Outside of Atlanta, there is some great hiking to be done in the state of Georgia, including the stunning trails at Stone Mountain Park.
