http://www.ivebeenthere.co.uk/ Welcome to Been there. Your tips on the places you know - that you love, live in or have just visited - are what make this guide. http://www.ivebeenthere.co.uk/tips/14116
Java Monkey: cafe, wine bar, poetry readings.

Brickstore Pub: a bajillion beers, good food and great atmosphere.

Bluebird Cafe: great, great great food, very veggie-friendly.

Little Five Points is a nice area to walk around in.

Also, the most moving tourist sight in my opinion is a trip to Ebenezer Baptist Church downtown, where Martin Luther King Jr used to preach. His grave is right next door.]]> http://www.ivebeenthere.co.uk/tips/14116 http://www.ivebeenthere.co.uk/tips/5288
Several of the neighbourhood’s early 20th-century churches, homes and commercial buildings are in good shape, making for an excellent walking tour. One of them houses the African American Panoramic Experience, known as Apex, which has several exhibits on the area’s history and a movie about the neighbourhood. Several blocks of Auburn Avenue have been designated part of the Martin Luther King Jr National Historic Site, in honour of the civil rights leader who was born here in 1929. King’s birthplace is open for tours.

A block west is Ebenezer Baptist Church, where King preached. Across the street is the Martin Luther King Jr Centre for Non-Violent Change, which has a visitor’s centre and exhibits on the civil right’s campaigner’s life and work. King’s tomb is on view at the site.]]> http://www.ivebeenthere.co.uk/tips/5288
