During your Atlanta vacation, don't miss these great establishments and attractions:

Jimmy Carter Library and Museum
Set on 30 acres of gardens, lakes, and waterfalls, this impressive presidential library houses some 27 million pages of documents, memoranda, and correspondence from Jimmy Carter's White House years. There are also 1 1/2 million photographs and hundreds of hours of audio- and videotapes. The library's hilltop site is a historic one; it was from this spot that Sherman watched the Battle of Atlanta.In the extensive museum, you'll find an exact replica of the Oval Office during Carter's presidency -- an exhibit enhanced by a recording of Carter speaking about his experiences in that office. A large display of "gifts of state" runs the gamut from a Dresden figurine of George and Martha Washington (a gift from Ireland) to a carpet from the Shah of Iran. You'll also see the table setting used when the Carters entertained Chinese Vice Premier Deng Xiaoping and his wife in the State Dining Room; a video of artists such as the late pianist Vladimir Horowitz performing in the East Room; campaign memorabilia; and a large display devoted to the activities of Rosalynn Carter. Other exhibits focus on Carter's support of human rights (there's a letter from Soviet dissident Andrei Sakharov and Carter's reply); his boyhood days (his sixth-grade report card and a photo of the Plains High basketball team are two of the items on display); and his pre-presidential life as a peanut farmer, governor, and state senator.There are informative videos throughout, including an interactive "town meeting" video through which visitors can ask Carter questions on subjects ranging from world affairs to his personal life. Another intriguing participatory video lets you choose your response to a terrorist crisis and learn the probable consequences of your choice.Consider having lunch here. There's an excellent cafeteria, run by one of the city's top catering companies, with patio seating overlooking a Japanese garden and pond. If you're still in a political mood, stop by nearby Manuel's Tavern, a local pub at 602 N. Highland Ave. that's popular with journalists and politicians. President Carter stops in occasionally.

Six Flags Over Georgia
One of the state's major family attractions, Six Flags offers a great day's entertainment. Arrive early (at least 30 min. before opening), note where you've parked in the vast lot, and take 10 minutes or so to plan out your show and ride schedule.The park's 10 areas have themes centered around different regions, from Southern (Cotton States, Confederate, Georgia, Lickskillet, and Promenade), to European (France, Britain, Spain), to American (U.S.A.), to Gotham City (featuring Batman The Ride). Costumed Looney Tune characters (Sylvester, Daffy Duck, and others) roam the park greeting kids (hint: check out the gazebo in the Promenade section to meet that wascally wabbit Bugs Bunny).Thrill rides include several watery options, such as Splashwater Falls (plummet down a soaring 50-ft. waterfall), a log flume, and Thunder River (a simulated whitewater rafting adventure). White-knuckle coasters include the Georgia Scorcher (one of the Southeast's tallest and fastest stand-up roller coasters), the Viper (which goes from 0-60 mph in less than 6 sec. and has a 360-degree loop), Ninja (the "black belt" of roller coasters, turning riders upside down five times and offering thrilling loops, dives, and corkscrew turns), the Georgia Cyclone (a classic wooden roller coaster with 11 dramatic drops, patterned after Coney Island's famous thrill ride), the Great American Scream Machine (another classic wooden coaster), and Mind Bender (a triple-looper). Other highlights are Batman The Ride (a twisting roller coaster with ski-lift-like seats), Great Gasp (a 20-story parachute jump), Riverview Carousel (a merry-go-round from the early 1900s), and Free Fall (ever wonder what it would be like to fall off a 10-story building?). A less dizzying adventure is Monster Plantation, a Disneyesque boat ride through an antebellum mansion haunted by over 100 animated monsters. And there's much, much more.Shows vary from year to year, but they usually include a major musical revue, a country music show, a golden-oldies show, thrill cinema adventures on a 180-degree screen, and an animated character show. In addition, headliners such as SheDaisy and John Michael Montgomery play the 8,072-seat (with lawn seating for 4,000) Southern Star Amphitheatre.There are restaurants and snack bars throughout the park, though you might consider bringing a picnic.

The Hammonds House Galleries & Resource Center of African-American Art
Occupying the 1857 Eastlake Victorian-style former home of Dr. Otis T. Hammonds, a black anesthesiologist and art patron, Hammonds House is a national center for the exhibition, preservation, research, and documentation of African-American art and artists. The permanent collection includes Hammonds' extensive compilation of works by African-American and Haitian artists, as well as his collection of African masks and carvings. These works are complemented by later acquisitions including pieces by Romare Bearden, William H. Johnson, Robert S. Duncanson, and Elizabeth Catlett. The permanent collection is shown on a rotating basis and is supplemented by exhibitions featuring the work of renowned black artists from all over the world. The Resource Center, housing documents on African-American art and artists, is open to the public by appointment.The house is located in the thriving West End neighborhood, which was declared a historic district in 1991. While you're in the area, take a look at the other lovingly restored Victorian bungalows and houses. A short walk away is the Atlanta University Center, the largest historically African-American education complex in the world, home to prestigious Morehouse College. Dr. Martin Luther King, Jr., is Morehouse's most famous alumnus; a chapel was built on the campus to honor his memory.

Make your reservations for discount hotel rooms in the Atlanta area, including:

Hilton Atlanta
If you want to stay in one of the downtown megahotels, this is a good choice. One of Atlanta's top convention hotels -- with 104,000 square feet of meeting and exhibit space -- the Hilton is surprisingly upscale for a chain hotel. The rooms and bathrooms are very nice and quite large, and the rooms offer coffeemakers, minibars, and hair dryers, plus video checkout and account-review functions. Some of the suites have Murphy beds for extra guests. The Hilton's premier restaurant is Nikolai's Roof, a 30th-floor dining room offering spectacular skyline vistas. Multi-course prix-fixe French and Russian dinners are the specialty. Adjacent to Nikolai's Roof is A Point of View bar. Trader Vic's, a South Seas-Polynesian restaurant found at numerous Hiltons, offers its signature setting of palm trees and tiki torches, plus potent rum drinks. The Garden Terrace, a pretty lobby-level eatery centered around a vast fountain, serves buffet meals at breakfast and lunch and a Sunday champagne brunch. Adjoining it are the Cafe Express Deli (a 24-hr. facility) and Le Café, the Hilton's casual dining facility. Finally, there's the Bogart-and-Bergman-themed Casablanca Bar, whose big-screen TV attracts a sports-minded crowd.

Hyatt Regency Atlanta
One of the city's major convention hotels, this Hyatt was designed in 1967 by famed Atlanta architect John Portman. With its innovative 23-story atrium lobby, it created quite a stir and was the prototype not only for future downtown hotels in the city, but also for a number of hotels throughout the United States. The hotel recently underwent a $22 million renovation, which saw the addition of new furnishings, new wall and floor coverings, new draperies, new lighting, and new artwork. In addition, all the bathrooms were upgraded.The Hyatt accommodates guests in the original 1967 building and in two later additions -- the 24-story International Tower and the 22-story Ivy Tower. Rooms have a contemporary flavor and feature the Hyatt's "premium bedding" concept -- beds are graced with pillow-top mattresses, high-thread-count sheets, and feather blankets. The functional and stylish bathrooms are equipped with hair dryers and Portico bath amenities.The main building's 22nd floor houses the Regency Club accommodations, featuring a private concierge, a lounge, continental breakfasts, evening hors d'oeuvres, and plush robes. Business Plan rooms (equipped with personal work stations, in-room faxes, desk phones with computer jacks, and coffeemakers) are on the 21st floor. Business Plan guests get free local calls and other perks. The blue dome capping Polaris, the Hyatt's revolving rooftop restaurant, is a landmark on the city's skyline. Open for dinner, Polaris features steak, seafood, decadent desserts, and spectacular views. The hotel is connected to the Peachtree Center mall by a covered walkway. Accommodations, rates, and service at the Hyatt are comparable to those at the Hilton, and any preference is usually based on habit. The Hilton is, however, the more suitable property for large conventions.

Marriott Residence Inn Atlanta-Downtown
This is the best deal downtown. It's close to all the action, the accommodations are quiet, nicely appointed studios or suites, and it's incredibly inexpensive -- especially for an extended stay. The building itself was constructed in 1928 and is listed on the National Register of Historic Places. The rooms, most of which are like small apartments, offer queen-size beds and kitchens outfitted with all the necessary equipment (the exceptions are some of the smaller studios, which have kitchenettes). High ceilings lend a feeling of spaciousness.In addition to a complimentary breakfast, the hotel provides a light supper Monday, Tuesday, and Thursday, holds a cookout on Wednesday, and will even do your grocery shopping. And if the exercise room is too small, guests have complimentary access to the fitness center at the posh Marriott Marquis just a few blocks away. As you pass through the marble lobby, be sure to look up at the ceiling. Painted by European artists when the building was new, the decoration has been restored to its original splendor. For a nice view of downtown, ask for one of the suites on the higher floors.
