Reviews
One of the BEST Historic Museum in the Country
I would recommend this Museum to any Nationality and Culture. It was very exciting for my 2 young boys, and very informative regarding the African American History. Everyone needs to visit.
He Had A Dream!
And the dream is still alive and working. Growing up in the sixties, in Atlanta, the King family was legendary. My grandmother owned a small furniture store, in the Sweet Auburn area, and the King family were regular customers. But in 1967, that dream was shattered. ...But not our hopes for a better country for all American's. Dr.King's resting place is very peaceful, as was his philosphy about life. This is one site that you can stay at all day. From his chidhood home, to the tomb, this is Atlanta's History, and America's History! 12/1/06-Coretta Scott King is now entombed next to her husband. Check-out Rolling Bone's BBQ, after a visit!
A must for both tourists or americans
It´s really a special place, where anyone may have an idea of how thought was the days when the racists did whatever they want. Visting the King Memorial is possible to know why some afro-american are still upset and full of heartfellings about their social statu...s and we may compare the shades of situation around the world. After the memorial, visit the Margaret Mitchell house and find out the, somehow, their stories are linked.
Great History
My family and I visit the Martin Luther King Jr site some time ago. The history of Martin Luther King's house was just as it was many years ago. You get a chance to tour the house inside and out. Also the musem and church makes interesting site and very well upkept. My family and I had a wonderful experience and very educational. I loved it. (It was free).
Must-do in Atlanta
The MLK Historic site is a must-visit for anyone in Atlanta. Between the visitors' center, the house the Dr. King grew up in, and Ebenezer Baptist Church, one is able to get a real sense of where this great man came from and all that he was able to achieve. The reflecting pool area is also a wonderful place for meditation...
Very moving
Try to get here early in the morning, before the crowds make it difficult to see everything. Take your time and you will truly be moved by reading/seeing/hearing Dr. King's stunning contributions toward making the entire world a better place to live.
