Home to Martin Luther King Jr, the city of Atlanta is the capital of the US state of Georgia and has some seriously historic roots. Nicknamed the 'Hollywood of the South', Atlanta is a prime location for shooting Hollywood blockbusters, with the city cropping up in many Marvel movies and the classic Indie hit, Zombieland – Emma Stone on the big screen? Yes, please.

Discover the city’s natural beauty, intertwined with urban landscapes. Visit Atlanta’s answer to Central Park – Piedmont Park – for gorgeous views that change with the seasons, or head over to Ponce City Market full of small, local boutiques, tasty food stalls, and a rooftop bar to grab a drink after an afternoon of scouring the vendors. There are so many things to do and see in Atlanta, but make sure you rest your head in one of these uber-cool Airbnbs.
