Atlanta, Georgia, the state's capital and largest city, and the seat of Fulton County. It lies along the Chattahoochee River in the foothills of the Blue Ridge Mountains. Because of its many dogwood trees, Atlanta is sometimes called "the Dogwood City."

Peachtree Street, the main thoroughfare, comes together with four other busy streets at Five Points, the heart of the city and the hub of commercial activity. Clustered here are office skyscrapers, hotels, banks, and department stores built largely since 1960. The gold-domed capitol and other state and county government buildings are nearby. Residential Atlanta spreads over the wooded, gently rolling foothills.
