Top Culture in Georgia

Grab a bite at a nearby diner instead of the venue's concessions. I spent too much on snacks that were ehhh when I could've had a great meal.

Don’t skip the tasting room! It's my favorite part, but I recommend pacing yourself so you can try all over 100 international flavors without feeling overwhelmed.

Consider getting a souvenir bottle or glass. I regret not doing this, as they have some unique designs you can’t find anywhere else!

Try to sample a few things from different food vendors. I thought I would just eat one thing but ended up loving a variety of flavors!

If you plan to visit the IMAX theater, buy those tickets ahead of time. My friend and I ended up waiting in line for ages and missed the show we wanted.

Don’t waste your money on the audio guides unless you really want details. I found that the displays had plenty of info without needing an extra expense

Make sure you check out the outdoor area. I almost missed it! There’s a lovely walking path and changing exhibits outside that are worth your time.

If you're looking to save some cash, try eating at the food trucks around Forsyth Park. They're affordable and offer great local flavors. Avoid the touristy restaurants in the area, as they're usually pricier and not as good.

My advice is to pack a snack if you plan to stay a while. There’s not much around for food right at the Cathedral, and you'll want to enjoy the tranquility without worrying about hunger.

I think visiting early in the morning around 9 AM is the way to go. The light streaming through the stained glass is just magical, and there are fewer people, so you can really soak it all in.

If you're driving, be aware that parking can be a pain. I recommend checking for nearby lots or using a rideshare option so you can skip the hassle. Save time for enjoying the place instead!

I suggest visiting on a Thursday or Friday evening when they have discounted tickets. It was so much more affordable and less crowded, allowing me to enjoy the art more peacefully.

My advice is to take advantage of the rotating exhibitions. I stumbled upon a special display that wasn't heavily advertised, and it ended up being my fave part of the visit!

I recommend checking out the exhibits before heading into the birth home itself. It gives you great context that really enhances the whole experience.

My advice is to wear comfy shoes! The ground can be uneven and you'll want to be ready to wander around and explore all the nooks and crannies

Don’t forget your camera! The square is super photogenic with those old trees and classic architecture. I missed some great shots because I didn’t plan for it.

My advice is to bring a snack. There are benches to sit on, and it’s nice to relax with a little bite while soaking in the architecture and history. I wish I'd had a drink with me.

I think visiting Chippewa Square in the morning around 9 AM is the best. Fewer crowds and you can enjoy the serenity before the tourists swarm in. Plus, the lighting for photos is awesome!

I suggest taking your time to read the historical plaques around the square; they really add depth to the experience. I skipped them and regret not learning more about the area.
