Stone Mountain (Atlanta, GA) and its near-brothers (but more tree covered, and so less impressive): Kennesaw Mountain, GA, Lost Mountain GA, Pine Mountain, GA.
All lava upthrusts of weathered rock above a relatively flat plain around them.

I want to see Stone Mountain one day.
Enchanted Rock is about 1 hour drive from here, and I visit it as often as I can. There are lots of geological points of interest there. There is one particular outcrop at Enchanted Rock that is quartz. The trails around it sparkle brightly in the sun.
