When people think about spending a weekend in Atlanta, the same attractions tend to make every list. While those places are popular for a reason, some of the city's best experiences are found in the neighborhoods themselves.
When people think about spending a weekend in Atlanta, the same attractions tend to make every list. While those places are popular for a reason, some of the city's best experiences are found in the neighborhoods themselves.
From locally owned shops and farmers markets to historic streets and beautiful parks, these are the places that give Atlanta its personality. Whether you've lived here for years or are just getting to know the city, these four neighborhoods are well worth exploring.
Candler Park
Candler Park
Charming bungalows, and laid back vibes. Home to Candler Park Market, from the outside may appear like a normal corner store. Step inside to find local fresh produce sourced from small farms, and isles of handpicked items from local vendors. Giving the perfect blend of neighborhood bodega and health food market. It is the kind of place that makes you feel at home.
Candler Park has one of the most unique playgrounds in Atlanta. Its rolling green hills create a truly unique play experience for kids of all ages!
Virginia Highlands
Virginia Highlands
One of Atlanta's most walkable neighborhoods, Virginia Highland invites you to slow down and explore. Spend some time strolling along Highland Avenue, browse locally owned boutiques, grab a coffee, treat yourself to vegan soft serve, and wrap up the day with an indie film at the historic Plaza Theatre. It's the kind of neighborhood where there's always something new to discover.
Grant Park
Grant Park
One of Atlantas oldest parks, beautiful victorian homes so rich in history, passing through there is an energy that is unmatched. Visit the Grant Park Farmers Market, spend the afternoon at Zoo Atlanta, or, during the summer months, enjoy the neighborhood's beloved Summer Shade Festival with live music, local artists, and great food. It's an easy place to spend an entire Saturday without running out of things to do.
Chastain Park
Chastain Park
A massive outdoor concert venue, a sprawling golf course, an equestrian center, miles of walking trails, and a recently rebuilt, state-of-the-art playground. All tucked in one of the cities most sought after luxury neighborhoods.
