The ATL
Atlanta – Don’t refer to the city as Hotlanta
any longer. It’s now called the ATL, which is the code
for the bustling airport and a trendy moniker befitting of
a culturally diverse city where a Hip Hop culture thrives
in concert with an abundance of new grandiose venues like
the $220 million Georgia Aquarium and the $100 million World
of Coca-Cola.
Regarded as the Capital of the New South for its bustling
corporate presence, Atlanta is a city where more than half
the adult population is from somewhere else. What transplants
and visitors alike find is that the Old South stereotypes
of white-columned mansions surrounded by magnolias owned by
laid back folks with accents thicker than molasses do not
paint an accurate picture. What they do discover is that Atlanta
is a cosmopolitan community that embraces its history rich
with both Civil War and Civil Rights Movement roots and its
present-day culture that includes Southern belles and hip
hop artists living in a place where the serene South and the
fast-paced metropolitan city lifestyle thrive in harmony.
Atlanta has a plethora of museums, attractions, restaurants
and night spots to occupy even a prolonged visit, and a multitude
of newer luxury hotels to serve as a base for your stay.
