"Stone Mountain More than 1,800 feet high and five miles around, Stone Mountain is a quartz monzonite dome monadnock that rises from an otherwise low-level area. Well-known for its geology, the mountain is also famous—although controversially—for its enormous bas-relief carving of three Confederate leaders. Visitors can hike the many trails or take the tram to the top for impressive views of the surrounding landscape. Alternatively, they can visit the family-friendly Stone Mountain Theme Park, which boasts a water park, scenic railroad, golf course, restaurants, and a famous laser show projected onto the mountain."
"Jamaican bakery Royal Caribbean Bakery is a Stone Mountain institution and heralded as the holy grail of patties (at $2 per). It’s also home to some seriously volcanic spice levels. Try the beef patty or the vegetarian-friendly spinach patty The pastry counter offers treats like plantain tarts and coconut drops as well as other glutenous goods shipped straight from their Bronx shop in New York." - Beth McKibben
