Underground Atlanta

Located in the heart of the downtown, Underground Atlanta is one of the city’s favorite attractions and a cultural hub. Opened in 1969 as a “city beneath the streets,” Underground Atlanta still exhibits many of the significant architectural features from its original structure.

I never feel safe here. Essentially an abandoned multilevel retail and dining complex downtown Atlanta that now houses Masquerade. Can never find direct access and meander alone in vacant space.

Oakland Cemetery

In front of the MARTA entrance you'll find a lamp called the "Eternal Flame of the Confederacy". It is one of the original 50 gas lamps placed around Atlanta in 1855. Another one stands in Oakland.

I was here the week Underground opened. It makes me sad how much this place has declined in 20 years. I still like to visit when I'm in town to stroll down memory lane & love the Braves shuttle!

Atavia White

Lots of random mall kiosks here. If you're a tourist be sure to visit the visitors center. Its past the food court , upstairs and right across the street. You cant miss it.

Check out the Peach drop here every New Years Eve but be sure to get here early so you can see the front part of the peach and the fireworks !

Underground Atlanta cycles between fun and questionable. But if you're interested in unusual historical locales, check out Underground and its architecture . Grab some pralines at the fudge shop! Read more

Caitlyn Silvas

Must get there early for the Peach Drop if you plan on getting any drinks. Not really a place for kids, really packed and people can get pushy. Be safe

Maggie Stahr

Went here with Radford Chi Alpha. We played guitar and sang worship songs. Everyone had to come up and find out where the music was coming from. They said we made their day. Y'all should do the same.

Levi Fite

Definitely a really awesome place, and loads of fun, but it gets old...there's only so much to do ya know? However, throughout the year they have amazing concerts and such.

This place is dead. It feels a little desperate and a lot sad. Maybe it was just the time of day that we visited, but the way the vendors acted makes me think otherwise.

Riggie Arévalo

Nice place to visit. Small mall with an interesting architecture

Go to topcorn if you want the best popcorn ever! Many different flavors! Some of the best I have ever had!

Janine Faith Peñaflorida

Nice architecture but mostly a place for shopping and eating. If you don't have money then I would advise you not to go. But, sort of nice place.

Aubrey Ramon

25 treats later it's still an entertaining & interesting place to visit.

The mall is alright nothing special. But they have a candy shop in the mall thats just to die for. The caramel apples are spectactular!!!

Amelia Ball

Broke into our car & we were ther less thn 45mins ????

Dwayne Kilbourne

Use the MARTA to hit up the Underground... adds convenience, especially since this area is not always the safest at night

Ian Bernstein

Turn it into a big skate park , place is worthless

Craig R

The parking lot is full of trash and smells of urine. Set your car's air to recirculate and hold your breath in the elevator .

Michelle Lawrence

Stop by the Information Booth for a Self-Guided Walking History Tour brochure.

Brian Hampton

I come here for the Bavarian almonds on my way home...Underground is definitely not as classy as it used to be..

Magic Wood (Black)

I wouldn't listen to none of the negative comments about this place. It's on how u look at things. Every place gonna have poor unfuturnate person . It's cheap ad fun.

Santiago R. Snaidero

Check out the stage in the very center, a bunch of talent happenin.

Krishona Cross

Havent been here in a while...they put to use that dark hallway leading to the clubs..an arcade ! !!

Krystal "Clear"

Its like a tiny mall in a subway, cool, and even fun! Anybody that likes new things shouldtotally go!

The annual New Years Eve Peach Drop has been a tradition here since 1989.

Like walking through there, always get fresh taffy at the taffy store.

Mark Musgrove

Great place to go shopping and hang out

Les

Shops were just opening when we showed up.. Yes, lots of homeless people there...

Amrit George

Went for the midnight New Year Peach Drop . Beautiful evening and a great start to a new year.

Jennifer Hite

Go underground and check out all the shops and vendors and have lunch . Check out the night club

Michelle Lawrence

American Deli (Food Court ) has a great Philly cheesesteak !

Dee Rey

Place is basically abandoned. Only thing left is American deli and a hand full of other shops.

Ali G

Skip the higher lots and Park down Fairlie next to Marta behind the CVS. $3 all day!

Colin J ♐

The parking garage is not what it use to be when parking in it.

Tau Ieb

Very urban. Lots of bums here, seems to be a few relics of culture. Interesting place.

shaunisinfinite

Great shopping, great food, a little crowded on the weekend but all in all well worth the trip.

Aden Troyer

Great shopping experience

Nicole Powers

Definitely not a tourist spot, I onlyb go to grab lunch since I work next door

Christopher Hindle

I agree. Make sure you are armed when you visit. Atlanta is a crappy place if your backpack was stolen.

Christian Joseph

This spot this mad hood

A. Riley

Check out the real Black Santa. Very nice man.

Robley Ray

If it wasn't for the fact that the Braves' shuttle is at the opposite end, I'd never step foot in this hell hole.
