Atlanta is the capital and largest city in Georgia. Located in Fulton county, it is situated in the northwest part of the state at the base of the Blue Ridge Mountains near the Chattahoochee River. Today, Atlanta is the major commercial and transportation hub of the southeast United States, and its international airport is one of the busiest in the world. The city's economy is led by the service, communications, retail trade, manufacturing, finance, and insurance industries. The convention business is also important, and Atlanta is home to many major corporations, including Turner Broadcasting and Coca-Cola, which was founded there in 1892.

One of the best times to visit Atlanta is in the spring when this lush southern city is in bloom with Dogwood, Azaleas and Redbud. While in Atlanta you will find great shopping, restaurants and entertainment.
