Atlanta, Crown Jewel of The South, was
incorporated in 1847 making it a city. It hosted the 1996 Olympics,
which led to much recognition for the city. At present, it has about 3.5 million people as it now becomes an ever
more popular place. Very few of Atlanta's buildings predate 1915, not because it's a relatively young city even
be American standard, but of the 1864 fire, no thanks to the Sherman's army. This city like many other Us cities
is thickly industrialised, Coca-Cola for example. Although compared to most large
American cities,
Atlanta is more laid back and cool about things one can say typical of the southern states.
Today's Atlanta is at first glance a typical large American city, with its ever-increasing international profile,
cosmopolitan blend of cultures and hip local neighbourhoods.
