You’d be forgiven for not knowing Dallas, GA even existed. This small suburb northwest of Atlanta often flies under the radar. But for those willing to venture off the beaten path, Dallas offers some surprisingly quirky attractions and activities that are well worth checking out.
Let’s start with the weird and wacky – because what small town is complete without some delightfully odd roadside attractions? Located at the intersection of Highways 61 and 278, you’ll find the Uniroyal Gal Wonder Woman and Big Mike the Muffler Man. These giant fiberglass statues are a fun photo op and taste of pure Americana kitsch.
But Dallas has more to offer beyond the offbeat. It’s a quintessential suburban town with shopping, movies, parks and hiking trails galore. Spend an afternoon wandering the antique stores and boutiques. Catch a flick at the local movie theater. Or work up a sweat on the trails winding through the woods.
So next time you’re in the Atlanta area, don’t overlook little Dallas. This unassuming town delivers plenty of small-town charm along with a hilarious dose of roadside wackiness. Sometimes the best gems are hiding in plain sight just off the highway.
