Left to right: Peach tree blossom, Ray Charles, Mayhaw berries, and a mossy road in the Southern Rivers region of Georgia.

( U jhen Ray C harles sang the famo us song "Georgia on My Mind," the world learned that
eve n in dreams, Georgia is an unforgettab le place. Whether you talk about the state's diverse and ever-changing landscape , its patchwork of cultures, rich heritage, or warm, friendly people , Georgia's magic "comes as sweet and clear as moonlight through the pines."
The largest state east of the Mississippi River, Georgia is a rolling land of magnolias and moss-draped oaks, mountains and pristine coastlines , pine trees and cypress swamps. It's a place where friendships flourish over a slice of pecan pie and a glass of cool, sweet tea, where urban nightlife is as easily accessible as a star-fill ed evening in the company of crickets. H ere tradition al valu es commingle with progressive ideas, and bustling cities coexist with a dynamic farm and timber heritage-Georgia is a leading producer of pecans, peaches, peanuts, tobacco, Vidalia onions, and forest products. From the mountains to the coast, through the h eartland and the rivers you will find a littl e of everything.
Atlanta, the state capital and the focus of the Atlanta Metro region, is an international center of business, home to the wo rld 's busiest airport, and a nexus of art, culture, fine dining, and nightlife. From Atla nta, take adva ntage of the network of inte rstate highways to visit any corner of th e state. If yo u prefer the scenic route, take one of th e local roads winding past panoramic landscapes and into the hearts of smaller communities.
In the Coast region , you can sit back and watch sa nderlings chase the tide on the wide, windswept beach of a barrier island, satisfy your craving for the freshest of seafood, or ca no e through th e nation's largest swamp. Stroll along the oak-shaded streets of Savannah, an exquisitely preserved ode to antebellum architecture and one of the best walking cities in the United States .
The intoxicating scent of fresh peaches fills the air in the Historic South region, where Georgia's hea rtland brims with colorful gardens, deep historical reso nance, and lively, music-filled towns like Ath ens and Macon .
In the No rth Georgia Mountains region, you'll find specta cul ar hiking, mountain biking, ca noeing, and rafting. Artists and musicians draw insp ira tion from waterfalls roaring through canyons, gorges, and valleys, spring wildflowe rs in endless va ri eties, and the ever-insp iri ng changing colors of fall leaves.
Time seems to stand still in th e South ern Rivers region, a fertile belt of agricultural bounty. Foll ow the paths of presidents at prominent historic sites, visit flouri shing gardens, or step back in time at bea utifull y preserved plantations.
As you can tell, yo u've got plenty of exploring to do, and we're here to help. Whether yo u sample your way through Atlanta's exceptional restaurants or make a hole-in-one on a Georgia golf course, enter a pie-eating con test or raft down a fast-flowing river, one thing's for sure: Georgia will linger in your heart like a fond memory or a new best fri end. Like a favorite song, Georgia will remain forever on yo ur mind.

Clockwise from above: Atlanta skyline, mom and son picking peaches, wildflowers along the coast.

HISTORY It was an unusual combination of strategy and philanthropy that prompted British general James Oglethorpe and a group of investors to found Georgia, named after King George II, in 1733. Intended as a buffer between the Spanish in Florida and the British in South Carolina, the 13th colony was also initially meant to provide opportunities for impoverished Britons. Oglethorpe, who banned liquor, Catholicism, and slavery, chose a site on a bluff up the Savannah River, brought in skilled craftspeople, and began building. With tremendous insight as to growth and aesthetics, Oglethorpe's architects created a marvel of urban design and named the new city Savannah. Georgia was born. Rice, cotton, and indigo were among the crops the first farmers attempted to grow along the coast. Though Georgia was sparsely settled at the time of the Revolution, at the encl of the 1700s the invention of the cotton gin inspired one of the greatest booms in history. People began to move into the state and planters grew rich from the fluffy "white gold" that they cultivated on grand cotton plantations. Large-scale cotton harvesting required the backbreaking work of West African slaves, and while many smaller farmers never owned slaves, plantation owners needed their labor. When Lincoln's antislavery platform won him the presidency, Georgia and other Southern states seceded from the Union and formed the Confederacy. The Civil War abolished slavery, and by the end of that great struggle, the cotton economy, along with most of the South, lay in ruins. The long phase of recovery stretched until World War II . By the mid-19 50s, Georgia had begun to thrive again, now as a center of industry. At the same time, the civil rights movement was gaining momentum, with Atlanta and its outspoken Nobel-prize winner Dr. Martin Luther King Jr. at the forefront. The hard fought efforts of many brought the Jim Crow era of segregation to a close, and Atlanta as well as other Georgia cities began to grow rapidly. "The City Too Busy to Hate" became the capital of the South, even hosting the Olympic Games in 1996. Today, Atlanta is recognized as the economic hub of the region and serves as headquarters for many international corporations, including UPS, Coca-Cola, Delta Airlines, BellSouth, and Home Depot. While the Atlanta metropolis is the heart of the state, Georgia's smaller cities and towns are vital as well, buzzing with industry and bursting with charm.

CLIMATE Georgia summers can have a hint of the tropics, but the y give way to long, colorful, and mild falls. Short, temperate winters lay the groundwo rk for the triumphant return of glorious spring each yea r. Humidity, especially along the coast, keeps the air dewy and the foliage lush and green. This moisture settles on your skin like mist, but here in the South you don't sweat, you glow.
Su mmertime temperatures may rise into the nineties by day and fall to the high seventi es at night. Winter temperatures hover in the forties and fifti es during the day, dropping into the thirties at night, with infrequent cold spells that dip below freezing. The Mountains region is usually a few degrees cooler than the rest of th e state, and its peaks sport dustings of snow each seaso n . It rarely ever snows south of Atlanta.
GEOG RAP HY As th e largest state east of the Mississippi, Georgia encompasses several geographical regions. The rugged mountains of the no rth wes t are linked to the Cumberland range, and those in th e northeast are part of the Blue Ridge, the beginning of the Appalac hians that run up the East Coast all the way to Ma ine. In the Piedmont region , where th ese mountains slowly give way to rolling hills, the rivers flow over flat shoals and through hardwood forests of oak, sycam ore, and a host of oth er species. Below what's called the fall line, the mountains end and middle Georgia begins with a great belt of fertile soil running across th e state . Here, travelers can find themselves driving between endless fields of cotton or soybeans. In South Georgia, tree farms present the tra veler with long, straight rows of pines that seem to pulse with light as you drive by. The point at which th e red dirt ends and the white sa nd begins marks the beginning of the coast. From here on, the land is flat all the way to th e ocea n, where huge marshes nurture wildlife and clean the water that fl ows in and out each day with the tides . The barrier islands that stretch up and down the length of the coast fo ster uniqu e ecosystems made up of tre es, plants , and ani mals uniquely adapted to the subtropi cal conditions.

Worth the Trip!
A hundred years ago, Thomasville was celebrated as one of the mo;t fashionable places in the world to visit. Many of its wealthy northern visitors bought land and built elaborate houses they called "winter cottages:' Others purchased area plantations and changed them from agricultural sites to shooting estates. The Hanna family of Cleveland, Ohio purchased Pebble Hill Plantation, Thomasville's crown jewel qf attractions. Today, visitors can tour Pebble Hill's forty rooms filled with stunning antiques and sporting art and stroll the beautifully landscaped grounds to gain an insightful glimpse into the plantation's elegant past. Historic downtown Thomasville has restored and maintained its Victorian character and offers superior shopping and excellent dining. The Museum of History has a wealth of historical information on the area. The Lapham-Patterson House is one of the unique winter cottages. One ofAmerica's premier sporting art festivals, the Plantation Wildlife Arts Festival, sponsored by the Thomasville Cultural Center, occurs each November.

--------------------------------

Tee Off
Perfect your putt and smooth out your swing year-round on the coast of Georgia. The region has more than 500 holes of golf, from public courses to seaside greens and lush private resorts, many of which offer first-rate instruction and economical fees.

Lighthouses
Climb the 129 steps to the St. Simons Island Lighthouse just to take in the ocean view.Visit other area lighthouses (some still working) such as Cockspur Lighthouse near Fort Pulaski, Tybee Island Lighthouse, Sapelo Island Lighthouse, and Little Cumberland Island Lighthouse.

Catch of the Day
On the coast, it's all about food fished fresh from the waters to the table. Savor fresh coastal shrimp and fish-fried, boiled, or blackened-sample oysters steeped in butter and garlic, or dive into a pot of delicious "Low Country Boil," a specialty of the region.

Fishing
Given that one of this region's major industries is harvesting the sea, it's no surprise that the Georgia coast offers great recreational fishing opportunities,too.The Intracoastal Waterway winds through the islands and features some of the richest fishing in the Atlantic. Oysters, shrimp, and crabs breed in the inshore marsh grasses, while the river mouths, calm inlets, and sheltered bays are perfect for catching flounder and trout. Further offshore, bag biggies like snapper, grouper, sea bass, kingfish, and pompano. Plentiful outfitters and knowledgeable guides are ready to introduce you to the saltwater bounty.

Ocean

Historic Forts
Along the causeway to Tybee Island, Fort Pulaski National Monument is the largest and last brick fortification of the Civil War. Further south in Richmond Hill, Fort McAllister's earthen fort sits atop an ancient native site and reconstructed Fort King George in Darien is Geogia's oldest fort.

Scuba Diving
Some 14,000 years ago, bison and mastodons roamed Georgia's rolling coastline.Now that land is submerged sandstone known as Gray's Reef National Marine Sanctuary (near Savannah), 17.5 nautical miles offshore.The reef supports afiourishing underwater ecosystem, popular with divers.

Kayaking
Slip a kayak into the water just about anywhere along the coast, and you'll be ahappy paddler, especially when the dolphinsswim up to play in your wake. Novice and experienced paddlers alike can enjoy the waves' -eye view. Inland kayaking on the Altamaha and Ogeechee Rivers provides excellent wildlife viewing.

Gullah and Geechee Culture
African slaves transported across the Atlantic Ocean arrived at a landscape that was remarkably similar to the one they leftswampy coastlines,tropical vegetation, and hot,humid summers. After Emancipation,freed slaves lived on the islands in relative isolation and retained many of their homeland traditions.The interchangeable terms "Gullah"and"Geechee" describe both alanguage and aculture that persist today along the Georgia coast. On Sapelo Island, the ro lling lilt of Gullah fills the air. The Geechee Institute in Savannah holds festivals and lectures to promote cultural preservation and education .

Savannah
The book and movie Midnight in the Garden of Good and Evil did for Savannah what Gone With the Wind did for Atlanta: It made the world sit up and take notice of this Southern belle city of many charms. Thanks to a massive restoration effort that saved the city's Greek Revival- and Regency-style homes from the wrecking ball, more than 800 buildings have been brought back to their former grandeur in the last four decades.Tree-shaded squares decorate the city in a patchwork of green, while lively restaurant, bar, and music scenes keep Savannah visitors dancing into the wee hours.

An eclectic fusion of amazing architecture blends smoothly with urban downtown digs for fine dining, drinks and dancing in an electric environment for fun. Even our

Acombination of bluegrass, folk, country, and gospel, Appalachian music is best described by its ability to tell astory of joy or woe, mountain air or moonshine. Add in an old-time fiddle,alittle banjo, and afew harmonic voices, and the music leaps to life. You won't travel far in the Mountains region before you'll hear clapping, foot stomping, and a lively tune or two. Throughout the year, visit the Folkways Center in Dahlonega, the Sautee Nacoochee Center in Sautee Nacoochee, the Remember When Theatre in Helen, and the Bluegrass Express in Hartwell for avariety of performances and shows.

Waterfalls
Some tumble and others rage, but one thing's certain:The Mountains region overflows with waterfalls. The seven cascades of the awe-inspiring Amicalola Falls (near Dawsonville) drop 729 feet, while the waters ofTallulah Gorge (in Tallulah Falls) spill through two miles of deep canyon.

Orchards
Drive down Apple Orchard Alley in Ellijay to see the reds, yellows, and greens of Northwest Georgia.

c_/) ocated just an hour south of Atlanta, the o(, town of Warm Springs, Georgia is nes-
tled among rolling hills and fresh water springs and is steeped in traditional Southern charm and hospitality.

/J } isit Roosevelt's Little White House while in Warm Springs to ''{/ see how America's only four-time elected President lived and where he died in 1945. This is the only house that FDR ever owned. Many of his most far-reaching New Deal programs were developed here.
Construction of the new FDR Memorial Museum has begun and is scheduled to open in Spring of 2004. The new museum promises to give the complete picture of the legacy that FDR gave to Warm Springs, Georgia, the nation and the world. With our living history programs, it's no wonder that the Little White House is Georgia's most visited State Historic Site.

Warm Springs offers over 60 specialty shops located in the Historic Village. Begin on the bustling Main Street and follow the alleyways to the Bullochville and Magnolia courtyards for a unique shopping experience.
History is evident in the town's charming restaurants, hotels and the 100-year-old restored buildings. Warm Spri ngs Vi llage offers food to please all tastes with over nine restaurants. We also invite you to retire in our Historic Hotel or other fine lodging accommodations.
Make History Come Alive!
