In the fall, the museum is scheduled to move from its current location in the Penn Quarter to a building at L’Enfant Plaza, where it will more than double its floor space.

Most people know how CocaCola tastes, but at this attraction in downtown Atlanta, they can sample more than 100 of the company’s most popular beverages around the globe, including Inca Kola, a sweet, fruity yellow drink created in Peru in 1935; Bibo Candy Pine-Nut, an African beverage with pineapple and coconut flavors; and Thums Up, the strong, top-selling drink of India.

The Coca-Cola experience includes a visit to The Vault, where the secret formula is kept, along with displays on its origins, myths and legends. Galleries in The Milestones section house exhibits on the history of Coke, featuring a 19th-century soda fountain similar to the one where the drink was first served and a 1939 Chevrolet truck used to deliver the product in Argentina. Other attraction­s include a 4-D (multisenso­ry) movie, Coca-Cola TV ads from around the world, a peek at the bottling process, and a chance to have a photo taken with the Coca-Cola polar bear.
