    Home of the 1996 Olympic Games! Take a stroll around & check out the different monuments. Close to many things nearby including the aquarium, Coca Cola, Football Hall of Fame, & a huge ferris wheel!

    Amazing initiative: this park was partly funded by the donations of thousands coming from individuals who "bought" bricks engraved with a short message of their choice, still in the park.

    Great park for the whole family to walk in the heart of the city. The park hosts many musical events especially during summer months. The water fountain is a fun place for kids to play.

    The benches at the Fountain of Rings allow you to enjoy the water and music spectacle—four times a day, tunes are timed to coincide with water displays that shoot sprays 15 feet to 30 feet high. Read more

    A great place to come at night for a stroll in the park or for concerts. Lots of things go on in this park. Lots of opportunity to come & be a part of something.

    Take a walk around and look at all the monuments. A nice park in the middle of downtown Atlanta close to a lot of other things like the Georgia dome, CNN, and college football hall of fame.

    Nice park to walk through and decide where to eat after visiting the World of Coca Cola or the Aquarium - both right across the street!

    Built for the 1996 Atlanta Olympic Ceremony, this park is one of the most photographed in Atlanta, mainly due to the children frollicking in the dancing fountain.

    There is something always going on. You may see food trucks, performers, and ice skating in the winter. Don't forget the new 200 hundred feet carousel near the park. Maybe just enjoy the weather.

    This is the largest downtown park in the country developed during the last 25 years and spans 21 acres. Each ring in the Olympic Fountain is 25 feet in diameter which is large enough for 2 cars!

    Come at night, when eight 65-foot lighting towers enhance the beauty of the park. They are stylized reproductions of the markers that led ancient Greeks to major public events.

    Even thought it was built over 20 years ago, it is well maintained. The Olympic Rings fountain is very cool.

    This one is more touristy, but you can find some cool stuff here, like the World of Coke and the Georgia Aquarium. Take Marta to The Dome/CNN Center stop.

    End a romantic evening at Centennial Olympic Park at the ice skating rink. After a twirl around the rink warm up with a cup of hot chocolate and a s’more.

    Don't get too close to the fountains when the music show is about to start or else the policeman will start blowing his whistle at you. Otherwise, have fun at the fountains.
