Atlanta, with a stellar economy and a “too busy to hate” mentality, has galloped its way to become an alpha city. The statistics are mind-boggling; a GDP of 300+ billion dollars, a highly educated population of 5.5 million, an airport that handles 100+ million passengers annually (world’s busiest in terms of passenger and aircraft traffic), and more than 50 streets with the name Peachtree.
The city has grown into new areas and blurred the thin lines between nearby villages and the core city. One such place is Buckhead Village, which was just another small town some decades ago. Today its America’s largest shopping destination, thanks to the Phipps Plaza, The Mall at Peachtree Center and Lenox Square. You will find malls with huge glass façades, vintage style antique stores, elegant art auction houses, and sophisticated brands. Here brands speak louder than anything else and you can find everything from Burberry to Bulgari, from Louis Vuitton to Prada.
But even with all its urban wonders, the city has maintained its amazing heterogeneity. The neighborhoods were quite unique and they slowly grew in their own flavor within their own boundaries, before economic prosperity tied them all together. The result is an interesting basket of neighborhoods, celebrating life in their own ways. You will find a starkly different food scene, changing across neighborhoods and blocks and sometimes right across streets. Similar is the case for music, arts, festivals, and traditions. This multicultural juggernaut gives you an authentic vibe of a truly global city.
Atlanta may seem like an urban jungle, but the fact is, it is daily washed by the fresh Appalachian breeze. The city is flanked by three mammoth forested areas, the Nantahala National Forest, the Chattahoochee National Forest and the Talladega National Forest. You can enjoy miles of pristine lands with valleys and mountains, interrupted by streams and lakes abound. The city itself is called “the city in a forest”, because of its vast percentage of tree cover, currently the highest at 36%. This canopy-paradise beats all major cities on all the green parameters you can come up with. Though you don’t need parameters to be the judge, you just need a lovely morning walk.
