Top Things to Do and See in Georgia

Since the 1996 Olympics Georgia has grown in population and notoriety, and for good reason. The warm climate that allows for year round fun makes Georgia the perfect travel destination. Until you have experienced Georgia in the spring you haven't fully experienced all life has to offer. Of course the beautiful fall colors and cool temperatures are a close runner up as the perfect Georgia season.

If you decide to visit Georgia there are several must see places and things to do. The top Atlanta attraction is the Georgia Aquarium. Other must see places include Savannah and the coast of Georgia, Helen and the North Georgia Mountains, Stone Mountain, and for some adrenaline pumping fun visit Six Flags.

The Georgia Aquarium is visited by thousands of families each year. Since opening just a few years ago this site has attracted people from all over the world. Billed as the largest aquarium on the planet the Georgia Aquarium near downtown Atlanta is a must see. Visit the Coca-Cola museum next door and taste samples of Coke products sold worldwide. The best time to visit the Aquarium and the Coke museum is during the week because the crowds are so thick on the weekends that it's difficult to fully enjoy.

There's no way to fully describe Savannah in one paragraph, but this is a must see city. Not just a must see Georgia city, but a must see American city. Savannah is arguably the most beautiful city in America and is probably one of the most beautiful in the world. From the live oak lined streets to the old houses to the beach there is something for everyone in Savannah. Tour homes, visit museums, eat at fantastic restaurants, and stroll the streets to fully appreciate this lovely place.

Cruise on up to the North Georgia Mountains and spend the morning driving the Richard B. Russell Scenic Highway before stopping in Helen for lunch and a few hours of shopping. If it's summer time make sure to rent a tube and float down the Chattahoochee River. Don't forget to taste test the fudge, but be warned because it's so good you'll probably leave with a pound or two - of fudge that is.

Near Atlanta is Stone Mountain Park. This park surrounds the famous granite rock that is visible from many areas in Atlanta. You can hike or take a tram to the top of the mountain. Visit the old homes and other areas in the park for a full day of fun. At night sit back on the lawn and watch the spectacular laser show on the side of the mountain.
End your trip to Georgia with a day at Six Flags. This theme park has been around for about forty years and has delighted several generations of families. Some of the best roller coasters in the world are at Six Flags over Georgia. If you are a little more timid don't let the roller coasters scare you because there are plenty of other fun things to do at Six Flags like great shows and many tame rides.

This short article can't even begin to tell you about all the great things there are to do and see in Georgia, but I hope it helps. Georgia can be fast paced or slow. It is known for technology and for its rural charm. Georgia is a top travel destination and welcomes you with open arms.
