Stone Mountain

Atlanta Top 7 in Can't Miss Attractions

Attractions Stone Mountain Park, also known as Stone Mountain State Park in Georgia (Stone Mountain State Park). The park is located east of downtown Atlanta, about a 30-minute drive. Atlanta is an important strategic location in the South during the American Civil War. There are many attractions related to the Civil War, and the park is one of them. The relief in the park is one of the most famous attractions related to the American Civil War. It is famous for the sculptures on the side of the mountain with the president of the Southern League during the Civil War-Jefferson Davis and the commander of the Southern Army, Robert Lee. Relief statue of Joseph Jackson. The relief was completed in 1972. Known as "the largest and most spectacular stone sculpture in the world". The park also retains the volcanoes of the last century, and it is also a place for Atlanta citizens to take a leisurely walk on weekends. Opening hours 5:00-24:00

In short: this is the highest point in the greater Atlanta area. -"Walking Trail" hiking is easy and very unique. The hiking reminded me of an ancient riverbed (smooth granite surrounded by pine trees). -Once you reach the top, you will see the entire state of Georgia. When the weather gets cold, bring a light jacket. -Shishan is the largest exposed granite in the world. -The entire park complex is huge and there are many facilities to choose from (camping, hiking, hotels, riverboats, air travel). -The stone sculptures of the Confederate Memorial Museum include: President Jefferson Davis, General Stonewall Jackson and General Robert E. Lee. Very cool. -There is even a "glue column" on which you can put a ball of glue, just like the glue wall in Seattle. In general, the trekking reminds me of a lot of things like trekking in the Seoul Towers. I just hope they have a lock of love to buy.

Stone Mountain Park is really a park focusing on Stone Mountain. Stone Mountain is also a huge big stone. In the center of the park, you can see this big stone from far away. There are many interesting scenery.

Stone mountain Park is located about 30 minutes from the city center by car. There are various price packages that can be viewed on the official website. Booking in advance online is cheaper than on-site. Only take the cable car 15 dollars plus tax. Shitou Mountain is about 500 meters above sea level. There are artificial snow slides, single, double and family 8-person snow peptides and snow fields every day from mid-November to early January. There are fireworks at 9 o'clock every night and you can visit the lighting and shops. There are shops nearby selling glass ornaments. There are explanations and on-site glass making every hour. Generally speaking, it is okay, but the package is relatively small and expensive, and the vehicle enters the park for 20 dollars. Average price!

It's worth going, uber is $35 from CNN, and there are no tickets for the national park. However, some elderly and children suggest choosing the cable car to go up and down, which saves worry and effort. If you are still a little tired from climbing by yourself, go to the mountain university for an hour. We choose the cable car to go up the mountain and walk down the mountain. (The cable car is round trip, I didn't sit down, it's about $15 per person, I didn't remember the ticket bought by my friend)

When we entered the park, we drove around the mountain and looked at the lake. There were people having picnics and barbecues everywhere. Maybe it was the weekend when everyone was out for an outing. We climbed the mountain first and then went to the grassland where we saw the laser show, and saw that many people were already sitting there with various mats on the grass. The show started at 9:30, with fireworks and spotlights. To be honest, because it is not the locals who have no sense of substitution, I don't think it is very interesting.
