Discovering Georgia: A Journey Through Its Unique Regions
By Kelley Thompson
Georgia's rich diversity can’t be captured by a single city or a shared history; its distinct regions offer varied experiences separated by more than distance.
Atlanta Metro and Northern Georgia
Atlanta serves as a vital hub for the state. The Martin Luther King, Jr. National Historic Site is an educational gem that immerses visitors in the life and legacy of the civil rights leader with films, exhibits, and his Nobel Peace Prize. Nearby, the historic Ebenezer Baptist Church stands where King once co-pastored.
The Georgia Aquarium, a gift from Home Depot co-founder Bernie Marcus, opened in 2005 and captivates visitors with over eight million gallons of water and 100,000 marine creatures from 500 species. Interactive exhibits allow guests to touch stingrays, horseshoe crabs, hammerhead sharks, and starfish, guided by experts to make the experience enlightening and safe.
Venturing north, the mountainous terrain of Northern Georgia boasts unspoiled landscapes and burgeoning vineyards. The Nacoochee Village offers wine tastings at Habersham Winery, with experiences enhanced by fly-fishing, tours of the working Nora Mill, antiquing, and horseback riding. A small fee covers wine tastings paired with cheese, fruit, and chocolates.
In Dawsonville, the Kangaroo Conservation Center hosts the largest collection of kangaroos outside Australia on its 87 acres. The center also features other Australian wildlife, including kookaburras, wallabies, and bettongs, and can accommodate large groups.
Historic Georgia and the Antebellum Trail
The Antebellum Trail stretches from Athens to Macon. Athens, home to America’s first garden club in 1891, invites groups to explore the Founders Memorial Garden. This space honors the pioneering women with a formal picket-fenced garden, courtyards, a retrace, a perennial garden, and an arboretum.
In May, the Civil War Reenactment in Old Clinton, known as the town that time forgot, brings history to life. The Old Clinton Historic District, listed on the National Register of Historic Places since 1974, preserves the town’s once-bustling trade and cultural center.
The Coast
Savannah, rich in history and architecture, beckons visitors with its untouched allure. A local warns: if you visit, you may never want to leave. Recognized by Walking Magazine as one of the top ten walking cities in the U.S., Savannah boasts 2,500 buildings with historical or architectural significance, making it a treasure trove for explorers.
