Urban Hiking Atlanta Review - Sheng Zhao

After enjoying a delicious meal at either the Korean Barbeque or the Cuban Tacos that Kinza has reviewed or any fantastic restaurant in Atlanta, you may want to walk around Atlanta and enjoy the great view of Atlanta. If you have never walked around Atlanta, you should definitely check out Urban Hiking Atlanta and participates the FREE urban hikes organized by Angel Poventub and his passionate group. The author of Urban Hiking Atlanta is very dedicated to promote hiking around Atlanta. Even though he has not explicitly explained his purpose, it is obvious that he tries to inform people who live in Atlanta that Atlanta is a beautiful city. He wants everyone to appreciate the wonderful environment they live in and to take action to preserve the natural habitat around them. In addition, the detailed travel plans that the author created can bring the community closer by gathering everyone who loves the Atlanta neighborhood.

In this blog, there are not many descriptive words; however, there are tons of pictures the author took during the hiking trips. Instead of relying on readers' imagination on what he tries to describe, the author choose to upload pictures to eliminate any confusion or clarity. One picture is worth a thousand words. Readers will be able to visualize exactly what can be seen on the hiking trips. These pictures also show the natural beauty of Atlanta and can easily convince many people to join the hiking immediately. These pictures are more effective and straightforward than descriptive words. When the author has to describe something, he keeps it very short and clear.

"What? September Urban Hike- exploring on foot from Reynoldstown to
Oakland Cemetery, on to 5 Points to (hopefully) see some of DragonCon!
When? Meet at 9am this Saturday, September 5th
Where? Park Grounds Coffee Shop- 142 Flat Shoals Ave SE, atlanta, ga 30316
Who? Everyone is invited- no age limits/restrictions! Dogs too!
Why? Why not? It's a Saturday and starting to feel like fall, so let's
go explore on foot around the city!"

This blog creates the awareness that there are many events going on around Atlanta and that this is a very active community. Just like many bloggers linked on Dr. Hoefer's blog, this author strongly encourages people to participate in social activities and make their own share of contribution to this community.
