Seminal sights
The Atlanta skyline is a very varied and beautiful horizon to look at. With structures such as the so-called King and Queen Buildings, or locally known as "the King and Queen towers", these two regal buildings can be seen for miles. The interesting monikers come from their resemblance to the heads of chess pieces. The tops of the buildings boast white lattice crowns, which light up for special occasions including St. Patrick’s Day. See if you can spot them in Atlanta wall murals such as "Atlanta Georgia Skyline Black". This dramatic motif is rendered in beautiful and classic black and white, ideal for any living room or even the meeting space in your workplace. Another famous building is the Symphony Tower, more commonly known as the "Batman Building" because of its wing-like glass faces above the roof of the building. It is also omnipresent in Atlanta wall murals, truly a sight to behold and a guaranteed conversation starter.

Learn some history
Atlanta was founded in 1837 as the end of the groundbreaking Western & Atlantic railroad line, named ultimately as "Atlanta", the feminine of Atlantic. When the Civil War broke out between the North and the South in 1861, Georgia seceded from the Union and became part of the Confederate States of America. It took the state of Georgia many years to rebuild after the destruction of Civil War also due to the fact that it is the only city in the United States of America to have been burnt as an act of war. This is also the reason why the symbol for Atlanta is the Phoenix. This emblem of rising from the ashes can be a wonderful theme in your decoration with Atlanta wall murals. The interesting history of this location is just one of the many benefits of having this selection of Atlanta wall murals by Photowall as embellishment in your home or office space.
