Atlanta is the state of Georgia’s largest city and is filled with fun summer things to do for this season’s holidaymakers. People with children of different ages will find themselves with their hands full of all the family-oriented attractions and activities that the city has to offer.

Before you start your summer vacation and wander around with your family, get yourselves the Atlanta CityPass that will give you instant admissions to the most popular attractions in the city. The Atlanta CityPass not only gives you great savings on cash, but also helps you save on time as you no longer need to fall in line for tickets for every attraction. The Georgia Aquarium, World of Coca-Cola, High Museum of Art, Atlanta Botanical Gardens, Zoo Atlanta, Atlanta History Center and Fernbank Museum of Natural History are just some of the places you can go to with the Atlanta CityPass.

Note: The High Museum of Art currently features the works of Atlanta-based professional photographer, Sheila Pree Bright, entitled Young Americans. The exhibit shows photographs of young American adults with captions that state their opinions and sentiments about American culture and society. The exhibit will run until the 10th of August 2008.

If you have children ages 2 to 8, the Imagine It! Children’s Museum of Atlanta is highly recommended. The kids will be encouraged and enticed to learn new things with the museum’s colorful hands-on exhibits. There are so many things to see, listen to, touch and explore in this 30,000 square-foot establishment, even older kids and parents are going to find themselves enjoying the place!

The Fabulous Fox Theater is proud to present the Coca-Cola Summer Film Festival. The Fox, as it is more popularly called, has the biggest screen in Atlanta and features blockbuster hits of the past and present. The Fox adds a few more movies this August that will definitely draw dozens of moviegoers. Some of the movies are Iron Man, Kung Fu Panda and Indiana Jones – Kingdom of the Crystal Skull.

If you wish to spice your family summer vacation up with a little adventure, then Georgia’s Stone Mountain State Park is right for you. Just sixteen miles east of Atlanta stands the 3,200 acre-park that centers the world’s largest exposed granite mountain. The first thing you should do when you get to the park is to ride the sky-lift gondolas that will take you over 800 feet above ground, giving you the most beautiful views of Georgia’s countryside. Within the park are other interesting things to see and do such as a petting zoo, a riverboat, an antique automobile museum and an antebellum plantation. Settle your family in the park’s campgrounds or any of the park’s lodging options for the laser light show in the evening, which is a regular event in the Stone Mountain State Park during the summer.

Atlanta is genuinely rich of cool surprises for everyone taking a vacation. It has been among the most sought for getaways for families, couples and those who prefer traveling alone. Top the above mentioned attractions and activities off with the city’s wide array of dining options, and you are definitely bound to have one of the best family summer vacations.
