Atlanta Holiday Attractions
Living in Atlanta has its perks. During the winter months we don’t get cold weather that lasts eight months out of the year. Of course we have our cold days but the number of warm days far outweigh the cold. Even so, the Holiday spirit is alive and well. There are many attractions, old and new to make the season brighter!
Stone Mountain Park Christmas Stone Mountain Park Christmas features shows, carolers, sing-along Christmas train, hot chocolate and snow angels. See the parade, Ice Age: A Mammoth Christmas 4-D, and thousands of lights. Snow Mountain is also open for sledding fun!
