Atlanta Botanical Garden
Never has a botanical bonanza been so bodacious. Peruse and admire hundreds of different perennials, plants, palms & conifers blooming within a barrage of bountiful gardens. Explore the Dorothy Fuqua Chapman Conservatory and walk through a tropical forest teeming with moist vegetation, or meander through the hot and dry desert house and see the poison dart frogs. Wander through Storza Woods and ponder the magnitude of nature's sounds. Discover the Japanese Gardens and try to interpret the symbolic presence throughout.

The kids will surely love the Children's Garden; equipped with a giant sand box for fossil digging, a fascinating bee observatory, in-depth chats about rose hips, a humongous tree house with telescopes and the always-popular bug-eating plants.

World of Coca-Cola
Explore the World of Coca-Cola and learn about the history of one the world's most well-known and vastly-distributed soft drinks. Peruse over 100 years of vintage advertising ads and memorabilia. A tour through the galleries depicts a different time frame in ever-popular longevity of Coca-Cola. "Creating a Classic" details the bottling process delving back into the late 1800's to mid 1920's. The next gallery tells the story of the "soda jerk" and showcases radio commercials from the 1920's to 1950's. Featured next is the variety of TV commercials dating back to the 50's. Near the end of the tour, visitors have the opportunity to sample a variety of international soft drinks, not available in the U.S.
