Review & Frequenly Asked Questions:

Atlanta is Georgia's most populous urban region, home to more than 5.8 million residents, making it the United States' ninth-largest metropolitan area.

The lively, diverse city has experienced a major urban revival following its hosting of the 1996 Summer Olympic Games, with Olympics-themed memorials on view at the city's lovely Centennial Olympic Park.

Sites connected to the American Civil Rights Movement abound, including the free-admission Martin Luther King Jr. National Historic Site, which honors the life and career of the noted 20th-century African-American activist.

Many public parks and open green spaces have earned the city the nickname "the city in a forest," including the unique Atlanta BeltLine project, which transforms a former railway corridor into a thriving urban connector area. Other major attractions include the Atlanta Ballet, the Georgia Aquarium, and the World of Coca-Cola center and museum.
