FairHaven Funeral Home And Cremation Services

Explore some of Macon's most dramatic history when you take the kids out to experience the stories and conflicts that make the Ocmulgee National Monument such a compelling place to visit. This attraction is an incredible slice of history that documents over ten millennia of Southeastern Native American culture. Features of the monument include major earthworks built over 1,00 years ago, a great temple and other highly impressive structures that the kids will love learning about.

New York City has Central Park. Not to be outdone, Macon has Central City Park. This lush, expansive swath of greenery is a true haven for city-dwelling nature lovers. While the park is a popular lunch destination for the many nearby cubicle-bound office workers, it also offers urbanites a great place to enjoy some quality time doing fun outdoor activities. Central City Park features various ball fields, basketball courts and big expansive areas to just play and throw the frisbee around. Designated picnic areas, a good variety of playground equipment for the kids, and a winding walking path only add to the park's appeal.

Let your love of military history and aviation take flight when you visit the Museum of Aviation. This attraction is located on the Robbins Air Force Base. You will find more than 89 military aircraft on display that include an F-15 Eagle, P-40 Warhawk, and an SR-71 Blackbird, which holds the distinction of being the fastest plane on earth. Informative movies produced by the Smithsonian are screened hourly. There is also a museum shop and cafe on the site as well.
