Atlanta can be a daunting city to visit.

For starters, it’s enormous, especially when considering the entire metropolitan region. Visitors will likely need a car, and the summers can be hot.

As a result, for many people, Atlanta is merely a connection point on a flight, rather than a destination. Not surprising, considering transportation led to the creation of Atlanta, a city not situated on a river or a significant body of water.

The city’s location was selected because it was at the end of a major rail line (hence the city’s original name: Terminus). But the city has a great history.

From the Civil War to the Civil Rights Movement to the 1996 Summer Olympics, the “Gate City” has always found itself at the forefront of global events. Despite its size and geographic footprint, it is possible to take in the city’s must-see attractions over a long weekend or a few short days, but visitors can explore it for as long as they would like.

Perhaps best of all, it’s home to incredible food.
