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.

Macon's Cox Capitol Theatre possesses an impressive cachet of classic style. Originally built in 1916, this is the place where area audiences first experienced movies that featured sound, then known as “talkies.” Things have progressed quite impressively here, as the entertainment venue still screens some of today's most acclaimed art films and import titles with the help of state of the art sound and projection equipment. But movies aren't the only attraction here, as live music, touring acts and more are always on the ever-busy marquee.

Nature lovers and history buffs will want to take a little time to visit the Rose Hill Cemetery. This is a highly impressive example of one of the area's 19th-century cemetery parks. Located a quick 6 miles from the center of the city, Rose Hill Cemetery offers visitors a chance to respectfully visit some of Macon's key figures as well as all of the men and women whose lives helped to shape this part of Georgia. Make sure to bring your camera as some of these headstones are visually stunning, and there are also many angels cast in stone that you will definitely want to take photos of.
