Atlanta offers all that you love about the big city — nightlife, theaters, museums, sightseeing and more — along with its trademark southern hospitality. The capital of the Georgia and an excellent city for travelers, Atlanta is accessible with 80 percent of the United States’ population within a two-hour flight of the city. This might help to explain why Atlanta has been one of the fastest growing cities in the developed world for much of the 1990s and 2000s.
