Plusieurs monuments à Atlanta sont consacrés à l’Histoire du pays, notamment à l’influence qu’a exercée sur elle Martin Luther King. Ainsi, outre la maison où le pasteur afro-américain est né, votre enfant pourrait en apprendre un peu plus sur la vie unique de l’homme en se rendant à son mémorial. Pendant son voyage aux USA, votre enfant pourrait passer par le cimetière d’Oakland – seul monument de la ville antérieur à la guerre civile américaine –, par la maison de Margaret Mitchell, célèbre auteur d’Autant en emporte le vent, ainsi que par le cultissime musée Coca-Cola, situé en plein centre-ville.
