Built for the 1996 Olympics and anchored by the Fountain of Rings, the park is downtown Atlanta's green square and a free spot to cool off in summer.

Know before you go

The Fountain of Rings runs choreographed water shows on the hour: a favorite spot for kids to run through in summer.
It's the literal center of Atlanta's museum row: the Aquarium, World of Coca-Cola, and the Center for Civil and Human Rights all face onto it.
Free to visit and open late, making it an easy stop even if you only have an hour downtown.
Look for the commemorative paver bricks: many were sold to the public to help fund the 1996 Olympics.
