-Atlanta boasts a variety of museums on subjects ranging from history to fine arts, natural history, and beverages. Prominent among them are sites honoring Atlanta's participation in the civil rights movement. Reverend Dr. Martin Luther King, Jr. was born in the city, and his boyhood home on Auburn Avenue in the Sweet Auburn district is preserved as the Martin Luther King, Jr. National Historic Site. Meetings with other civil rights leaders, including Hosea Williams and current Congressman John Lewis, often happened at Paschal's, a diner and motor inn which was a favorite for "colored" people, banned from "white" restaurants in an era of racial segregation and intolerance. King's final resting place is in the tomb at the center of the reflecting pool at the King Center.\n\nOther history museums and attractions include the Atlanta History Center; the Atlanta Cyclorama and Civil War Museum (a huge painting and diorama in-the-round, with a rotating central audience platform, that depicts the Battle of Atlanta in the Civil War); the Carter Center and Presidential Library; and the Margaret Mitchell House and Museum.\n\nThe arts are represented by several theaters and museums, including the Fox Theatre. The Woodruff Arts Center is home to the Alliance Theatre, Atlanta Symphony, High Museum of Art, and Atlanta College of Art. Museums geared specifically towards children include the Fernbank Science Center and Imagine It! Atlanta's Children's Museum. The High Museum of Art is the city's major fine/visual arts venue, with a significant permanent collection and an assortment of traveling exhibitions. The Atlanta Opera, which was founded in 1979 by members of two struggling local companies, is arguably the most important opera company in the southeastern United States and enjoys a growing audience and international reputation.\n\nAtlanta features the world's largest aquarium, the Georgia Aquarium, which officially opened to the public on November 23, 2005. The aquarium features over 100,000 specimens in tanks holding approximately eight million gallons of water. One unique museum is the World of Coca-Cola featuring the history of the world famous soft drink brand and its well-known advertising. Adjacent is Underground Atlanta, a historic shopping and entertainment complex situated under the streets of downtown Atlanta. In addition the Atlantic Station, a huge new urban renewal project on the northwestern edge of Midtown Atlanta, officially opened in October of 2005. While not a museum per se, The Varsity is the main branch of the long-lived fast food chain, featured as the world's largest drive-in restaurant.\n\nThe heart of the city's festivals is Piedmont Park. In 1887, a group of prominent Atlantans purchased 189 acres (0.76 km²) of farmland to build a horse racing track, later developed into the site of the Cotton States International Exposition of 1895. In 1904, the city council purchased the land for $99,000, and today it is the largest park in metro Atlanta, with more than 2.5 million visitors each year. The grounds were part of the Battle of Peachtree Creek – a Confederate division occupied the northern edge on July 20, 1864 as part of the outer defense line against Sherman's approach. Next to the park is the Atlanta Botanical Garden. Zoo Atlanta, home to its own panda exhibit, is located in Grant Park.\n\nJust east of the city, Stone Mountain is the largest piece of exposed granite in the world. On its face are giant carvings of Jefferson Davis, Robert E. Lee, and Stonewall Jackson. It is also the site of impressive laser shows in the summer. A few miles west of Atlanta on I-20 is the Six Flags Over Georgia Theme Park, which opened near the city in 1967, and was the second theme park in the Six Flags chain.\n\nPopular annual cultural events include:\n\nAtlanta Dogwood Festival, a Spring arts and crafts festival at Piedmont Park. \nMusic Midtown - Three-day music fest

Dad was stationed there twice when I was a kid. The folks are retired outside of Columbus, GA now. There isn't a lot to do in the imediate area. But its a nice place to head to the beach from on the weekends. Atlanta is nice if you like big southern city life. If you have been there for schools then you know all about Victory Drive. Girl friend? Yep you really need to stay off VD drive. If you like fishing and outdoors stuff its not a bad place. If you or her are party animals..... go somewhere else. I grew up in the infantry, I can tell you that you don't want to go to Polk, Irwin or Drum. Best places were Italy, <---- best post oconus,  West Point, Fort Ord (when it was open) and Fort Sam Houston, TX <--- best post conus.

If you enjoy outdoor activities, try Kennesaw Mountain or The Silver Comet Trail.  There are some beautiful, huge, old graveyards worth exploring near Marietta Square, and the shops in the square itself can be entertaining for a day trip. Don't miss Eddie's Trick Shop or the Austrailian Bakery. \n\nhttp://www.trailexpress.com/silvercomet/index.php

Tao, at the Venetian, is currently "the" hot spot in town, with a decor scheme I call "a post apocalyptic Bhuddist Temple," a great dance floor (if you can find room on it to actually dance) and plenty of cool, vibe-y spaces to drink, party, and enjoy.  Jet at The Mirage is the newest club from the same people who do Light at Bellagio (also a great club).  It's got several different rooms and dance floors on multiple levels.  Tryst is the new club at Wynn Las Vegas, replacing their first failed attempt La Bete.  It's a little more "grown up" but still has a terrific vibe and the look of the club is very dramatic.  Also consider Body English at the Hard Rock, definitley one of the more popular clubs in town right now.  And if you want something a little different, try Ivan Kane's Forty Deuce at Mandalay Bay - small club, no formal dance floor, but the energy is fantastic and the place is a lot of fun.  Enjoy!

Gatorland is great. Kennedy Space Center is near by. Sea World is also a lot of fun. There is lots of shopping in the area as well as dining. You could also do putt-putt or go someplace like Wonderworks or the Hardrock valut. Downtown Disney and City walk are also great.\n\nHope this helps
