Where this comes from. Each row comes from our Georgia attraction dataset (attraction transparency index, updated ), which records admission only when the place publishes it. “Not published” means the place does not say, not that it is free.
Each row has an “Official site” link where we could confirm the place’s own page, and a link to our guide or place page where one exists. Rows where we could not confirm an official page say “Not confirmed”. Links checked .
