This place represents Atlanta proudly, history rests here and its displayed elegantly. There's a uncontrollable feeling of influence and a vibe you get while exploring the grounds. A real raw sense of history of one of the most influential activist that ever spoke up. Would recommend visiting to anyone any day of the week.
Beautifully kept grounds & pool under construction;
an out and out moving experience
No one can go to Atlanta and stop going to the Martin Luther King Center. If half of those who go to Outlets visited, the world would be more supportive and less unequal.
Such an important monument, give yourself at least 3 hours to explore the monument.out you want to see his birth home get the free tickets early, they only give a limited number each day.
Great historical location. The kids enjoyed every bit. Good for a couples day date or family outing
A wonderful dedication to MLK and his accomplishments. I only had time to see part of the walk through of his life and the state of American at that time but it was illuminating and very interesting. If I'd had more time I would have stopped in at the adjacent church as well.
It was exciting to visit the church I/we (Lucy Addison High School Choir) had the privilege to sing at in 1968.
My favorite place we visited while in Atlanta. A must see!
Historical place to visit. My wife and I took the grandchildren here.
An Atlanta must see! Lots of informative information on Dr. King and the civil rights movement in America.
An amazing museum and historical complex. Highly recommend.
An instructive and moving place on Martin Luther King, his fight against racial segregation and violence.
Fortunate for us to still have this available to us
We visit every year. We took our children now we take the grandchildren. From TN. #ourhistory
So much history. The staff is excellent. Mr Stephon Ferguson is phenomenal he sounds exactly like Rev. Martin Luther King Jr.
Loved it...i think we should be able to take pictures...but over all the experience was joyful
You learn more here, feel more here, than you would ever in a classroom
The Martin Luther King Center was an awesome & emotional experience. I loved everything about it.
Always nice chunk of ISRAELITE history. Malcolm X needs his own monument
This was amazing. My family enjoyed this visit. Everyone was friendly and I learned so much from reading the different articles on the displays. The elevator was beneficial for my mother in law. The gift center could have a wider variety of items to purchase.
Learned so much and have a different respect level for MLK
I am a big fan of National Sites. This place is full of history.
Excellent! Very historical and educated. First time visiting, will be back again. Great memories.
Love it for history, knowledge and and power of LOVE
Visited the Historical king Center a very nice place to put on sightseeing plans when visiting Atlanta.
Takes one back to a time issues where brought to light by courage. Most of these issues are still with us, making this gallery relevant and powerful
Very good introduction to his life throughout a visitors center (don't miss the movie) and a collection of buildings including his church, birth home, and final resting place.
Loved every minute of being there. Learnt a whole lot. The receptionist was so nice.
It was a great experience to see MLKs house and the whole row of historic homes!
awesome national park commemorating Dr. King. there are lots of museums and sculptures relating to the civil rights movement here in addition to MLK's birthplace and his fathers church, Ebeneezer Baptist.
I wish I could bring my students here but I teach in Oregon. I took a lot of photos to bring the material into the classroom to get students talking and learning.
Must see spot in Atlanta. I have been there dozens of times, but still I'm impressed by cleanliness of areas and courtesy of staff.
I highly, highly recommend going here with a family and kids, or even friends. I went alone and there is so much to learn and appreciate here. I love learning about civil rights history and there s lots of pictures and artifacts if younger kids don t want to read. They offer guided tours (15 people per tour) of Dr. Kings house every day, which starts at 9 or 10am and it s first come first serve so I recommend coming as early as possible. I came at 3 pm and all the tours were already booked up for the day. The tours are free but there s a souvenir shop in the house next to Dr. King s which you can buy many civil rights books, even cook books, water bottles, post cards, etc at. Such an amazing experience for tourists and Atlanta natives. I encourage everyone to go at least once!
I highly recommend going to the MLK, Jr National Park. There is so much history here, it s amazing! To see videos of Mr King and hear him speak and see all the amazing things he did for our Country is truely humbling and inspiring. I hope I am stationed close by so I can bring my son here when he is old enough to understand how far our Country has come, and the struggle it took to get here. And how much work it still needs.
very educational and interesting exhibition about the civil rights leader
MLK Jr. was the boi who should get tendies for life as he earned good boi points from mommy by kicking the ass of KKK members
The Rangers are all really amazing at helping bring history alive. Thank you!
The Martin Luther King National Historic Center
This is a very profound and heart touching place to visit. The Historic Compound is a group of Historical Site not far from one another. You can do this on your own by simply following a map. For example, you can visit the house where this great man was born in. It was built in 1895. From there you can visit the Ebenezer Baptist Church. It is only a block away. Not far is the King Center for Non Violence. Ms. Coretta King started the Center after her husband was assassinated. There is also the visitor center and the Gandhi Promenade.
All of these historical venues are full of facts, photographs and historical information. And each site requires time and effort. Do not rush and truly pace yourself. I spent about five hours and felt satisfied with all that I saw. Do not forget to visit the Martin Luther King Jr. and Coretta Scott King tomb in the Sweet Auburn district. Walk the Freedom Hall and mediate how much freedom cost. I admired this man and it was an honor to visit these places. They are a part of a History that should not be ignored travel and let History tell you truth and share.
Very nice educational center rich in history! Must see when visiting Atlanta.
Love love love the feeling you get when being in the presence of greatness
At first I was supposed to go with my fellow girl scouts but I couldn't find them so since my brother drove me we went through together even though I didn't see the other girl scouts I'm glad I got bond with my brother so I recommend you going it's so wonderful experience and it brings people together
Great place to visit and learn more about this grate man!
Breathe Taking Experience! From the Civil Rights Documentary in the Theater Room to the Mannequins walking towards Freedom...This Museum exceeded my expectations! I believe every person of all ages should visit. The visuals are amazing, the Staff Rangers were friendly and informative. The entire street the Museum is located on, is just full of Great History and it's all FREE which is awesome. (Tour MLK Jr's Church called Ebenezer, Visit his Home on the same street in walking distance, Visit the 'New' Ebenezer Church across from the old one, Visit MLK Jr's Tomb outdoors all for free) It truly reminds you to continue to Spread Love and Peace!
Peaceful building with a lot of memories, history, contributions, and greatness.
This is a "must see" when in Atlanta
