Enjoy the city’s stunning beauty through it’s growing collection of street art, supported by the annual Living Walls event and organization. Even swing by for a music festival like JazzFest, the city’s large and free summer jazz festival. Listen in at ATL music venues, like the Tabernacle, The Drunken Unicorn or Eddie’s Attic. You can enjoy Midtown favorites like the High Museum, Atlanta Symphony or the Museum of Design Atlanta. ART & CULTUREĬreatively, Atlanta doesn’t just leave a mark on you, but lets you leave a mark on it. And of course, don’t skip the city’s beloved Staplehouse - a for-profit subsidiary of The Giving Kitchen, a non-profit that assists Atlanta restaurant workers in times of need. For fine-but-casual dining, try any restaurants from renowned regional chefs Anne Quatrano, Hugh Acheson or Ford Fry. In the morning, sample any of Atlanta’s biscuit-laden brunch hotspots. Take a trip to Buford Highway to find authentic Korean, Vietnamese, Cantonese and Sichuan. Start casual, and wander the halls of the big eating houses in Ponce City Market or Krog Street Market. Southern culture has always had food at its heart, and regional cuisine has been rethought and refreshed through Atlanta’s dining scene. Wherever you wander, you’ll find something to enjoy. For nightlife, explore the Highlands, Edgewood or Atlanta’s quirky “EAV” or East Atlanta Village. For great eats, try Old Fourth Ward, Kirkwood, Decatur or Atlanta’s Westside. Start your stay in Midtown, home to many of the city’s hotels, Georgia Tech University and the city’s tree-filled Piedmont Park.
When you fly to Atlanta, you will find a patchwork of neighborhoods, many dotted with Atlanta’s signature early to mid-century homes. Always changing, the city’s experiencing a vital stage of growth - with jobs and people rushing into the city’s neighborhoods, each one with its own unique feel. There’s many ways to describe Atlanta, and much more to see. Unexpected, artsy, urban, Southern, a little quirky, real, still finding its identity.
