City Information
Chamblee
Chamblee is one of Atlanta's neighbors to the northeast, whose development stemmed primarily from an intersection of two railroads in the late 19th century. Much of downtown Chamblee retains a charming railroad-community vibe, with plenty of antique shops to match. Chamblee is also the site of what is known as "Atlanta's Chinatown." There is no designated Chinatown in Atlanta, but Chamblee's suburban community includes an Asian shopping mall called Atlanta Chinatown. Inside, you'll find a supermarket, specialty stores, a manicured Chinese garden, and a food court with all kinds of to-die-for Asian dishes - especially hot pot!
Chamblee has a public-use airport, the Dekalb-Peachtree Airport, that does not operate any commercial flights. However, visitors can still explore the adjacent Doc Manget Memorial Aviation Park, with a popular playground and excellent views of the smaller aircraft landing and departing.
Chamblee has a train station on the MARTA Gold Line, a commuter rail line that goes directly into downtown Atlanta. The city does not connect to Amtrak train service, but Wanda Coach has many intercity bus connections from Chamblee. An affordable bus ride on Wanda Coach can take you to New York, Richmond, Charlotte, Baltimore, or Washington.
Indianapolis
Indianapolis, or often referred to as just Indy, is the capital and largest city in the state of Indiana. While the city attracts thousands of visitors from the area every month, it is during Memorial Day weekend that Indianapolis becomes the place to be for over 300,000 race car fans from all over the globe. The reason for that is the Indianapolis 500, an annual automobile race and the world’s largest single day sporting event, taking place at the iconic Indianapolis Motor Speedway.
If you’re not in Indianapolis for Memorial Day weekend, you can learn about the race and see a rare collection of 500 Indy race vehicles and memorabilia at the Indianapolis Motor Speedway Museum. And while you’re on a history streak, stop by at one of the many war memorials found throughout the city, like the Soldiers and Sailors monument, the World War II memorial, and the Indiana War Memorial where you must check out the Shrine Room for a stunning one-of-a-kind experience.
Over the past few years, Indianapolis has also been cultivating a vibrant restaurant scene, offering classic American dishes made with ingredients from local farmers, and a growing selection of international cuisine. If you’re a beer fan, you will be happy to know that Indianapolis has some of the highest quality breweries in the U.S.
