photo World of Coca-Cola, in downtown Atlanta, is a high-tech attraction that replaced the original and smaller World of Coke, located in the Atlanta Underground area from 1990 to 2007.

The World of Coca-Cola in downtown Atlanta has seen its 5 millionth visitor since moving to its new location.

Duluth, Ga., teenager KoEun "Emma" Lee became the milestone visitor Monday while in Atlanta to celebrate Martin Luther King Jr.'s birthday. She's the museum's 5 millionth visitor since it moved near the Georgia Aquarium in May 2007.

Lee was given prizes including a lifetime pass to the World of Coca-Cola, a special tour of the facility and a $500 gift certificate to the Coca-Cola Store.
