| The largest state east of the Mississippi River, Georgia plays a major role in the economy of the southeastern part of the United States.
Atlanta, the state capital and largest city, is the commercial, transportation, and
financial center of the entire Southeast. Thousands of national concerns have
offices in Atlanta, and one of the city's downtown intersections is called the Wall Street
of the South. Although many people think of Georgia as a state of small towns and
rural areas, the urban manufacturing centers are more truly representative of the modern
state.
There's more to Georgia than peaches and peanuts, Jimmy Carter and Scarlett O'Hara.
Georgia has scores of appealing bed and breakfasts, country inns and lodges, historic
hotels, urban inns, and B&B homestays. Southern charm and hospitality
follow you across the State of Georgia and it is especially evident in the innkeepers when
you stay at a bed breakfast in GA. And of course Savannah hospitality and her historic GA
bed and breakfast selection is parallel to none. Saunter down cobblestone streets, enjoy
tasty fresh seafood and explore the many historic sites, including the First African
Baptist Church
The Georgia Coast,which stretches from Savannah to Saint Marys,allows you to walk secluded beaches and tranquil marshes and relax at any
one of the lovely Georgia bed and breakfast along your path. Bird watchers find the trail
at Colonial Coast Birding provides ample opportunities for sightings of over 300 species.
Head north from the coast to the Classic South area of Georgia where the rolling
Piedmont hills and historic Augusta Canal provide a landscape of natural beauty. Situated
on the Savannah River, Augusta of
course is the site of the Masters ® Golf Tournament. But non-golfers dont dismay,
there is a two-tiered promenade, called the Riverwalk to explore. Atlanta,
the capital of Georgia, is a hot bed for entertainment, dining and culture. Stroll the
Buckhead neighborhood to shop until you drop. Stop by the Jimmy Carter Library and Museum
for some quiet time or enjoy the wide open spaces of Piedmont Park before returning to
your bed breakfast in GA. Before leaving this state dont forget to enjoy the
northeast Georgia mountain region, the gateway to the Appalachian Mountains and home of
the Chattahoochee River, which you can tube down. |
