News The Urban Explorer's Handbook 2009
Posted by Mara Shalhoup on Thu, Mar 26, 2009 at 2:56 PM
Think of the Urban Explorer's Handbook as the ultimate guide for vacationing in your own city. Can't afford the South of France? (Um, who can?) Bummed about missing out on skiing the Rockies, sunning in SoCal, vineyard-hopping in Napa? Screw it. You can spend a sunny afternoon in Decatur for a gazillionth of the cost! Venturing along Buford Highway is almost as good as traipsing through Vietnam (or Thailand or Peru or Mexico)! Cabbagetown is Atlanta's own little slice of Bohemia!
Crack open this year's issue to find six-hour itineraries for each of your favorite neighborhoods highlighting brand new hot spots, quirky, off-the-beaten-track treasures, and “Don’t Miss” destinations and events. Since there's only so much we can squeeze into print, the Urban Explorer website features even more neighborhoods jam-packed with a plethora of listings to help you plan a mini vacation in your own back yard. The best restaurants? Check. Eclectic shopping destinations? You got it. Galleries to get your art fix? Of course!
Grab your travel buddy, fill your canteens and dust off that vintage Polaroid. It's time to explore Atlanta's own back yard.
