For three levels of drinks and dancing, head out for a nightlife experience like none other at CosmoLava. The Midtown Atlanta club has five bars throughout three levels, and features DJs spinning house music, 80s hits, funk and hip-hop, and top 40 hits. As you're dancing the night away, take a break from the dance floor and head to the bar to try "Atlanta's Best Cosmopolitan."
Take in the eerie beauty of Georgia's oldest burial grounds, the Oakland Cemetery. The cemetery was founded in 1850 and there are an estimated 70,000 people laid to rest in its 48-acre expanse. Sections of the cemetery include the New Jewish section, the Black section, the Confederate section, and the cemetery's Original Six Acres; each section represents a different time in history. Some of Atlanta's most important and influential figures are interred here.
Satisfy your need for speed with a visit to the Atlanta Motor Speedway. This southern speedway is host to NASCAR's famous Sprint Cup race, held every year on Labor Day weekend. If you're not one to watch laps and laps of a NASCAR race, the track hosts "Friday Night Drags" from spring until fall. The cars competing in the drag races hit top speeds, flying down a 1/8 mile stretch.
