About Atlanta


Ever heard of a phoenix rising from the ashes? That’s exactly what Atlanta is, in terms of cities, since the city was rebuilt after most of it was burnt to the ground by General William Tecumseh in 1864.

Today, it’s a metropolitan with a population of over five million and is also home to the busiest airport in the world. On top of that, Atlanta has rich showbiz and culinary scene, making it the perfect place for people who value the simpler things in life.

Although he was born in Georgia, President Jimmy Carter was equally loved by the neighboring city, Atlanta. Visitors can learn about his life and see his Nobel Peace Prize in the Jimmy Carter Presidential Library & Museum in Atlanta.
