Georgia is rich with vibrant activity, intriguing history, local graciousness, and southern style. From an island-jeweled Atlantic coast to the waterfall-laced northern mountains to its pulsing heart in Atlanta, Georgia has incredible attributes. Atlanta’s cultural and arts scene is second to none. Atlanta boasts its Fox Theater, symphony, ballet, opera; major-league professional sports teams, motor speedway, and nightlife. The “Golden Isle” of St. Simons, Tybee, Jekyll and Cumberland islands combine natural beauty, beaches, working lighthouses, wildlife and a lively performing and visual arts scene. Northern Georgia’s Blue Ridge Mountains embrace national forests, blue-jeweled lakes and waterfalls hundreds of feet high. When you travel to Georgia, you won’t want to miss the numerous historical sites and events. Civil War sites, museums and cemeteries, antebellum mansions, the Chieftains Trail showcasing Native American heritage, and Civil Rights sites all interpret the historical and national significance of Georgia. Stone Mountain combines natural and visitor attractions, such as a skyride, riverboat cruise and laser show. Special recreational opportunities range from the first 76 miles of the Appalachian Trail, to whitewater paddling on mountain streams, hunting, fly fishing, deep-sea fishing, and golf. This state’s also the home of golf’s most-prestigious tournament: The Masters. Georgia’s meeting and event venues reflect the state’s vibrant diversity. Atlanta venues include the Georgia Institute of Technology just minutes from the downtown’s cultural, recreational and entertainment options, along with the Atlanta History Museum, which offers guests a unique event venue.. Jillian’s Meeting and Events in nearby Lawrenceville offers a banquet hall and alleys for a bowling party. If you want a restaurant for rent, there are three Maggiano’s Little Italy restaurants in the Atlanta area. Georgia International Horsepark in Conyers was the site for the 1996 Summer Olympics’ equestrian and mountain biking events. Historic Banning Mills Country Inn & Conference Center offers a country atmosphere and abundant outdoor recreation for company outings, while the Retreat Center at Ramah is set in the Chattahoochee National Forest and features mountain-style recreation.
