 TENNESSEE FOR ALL SEASONS From the Mississippi River to the Great Smoky Mountains, Tennessee is waiting for you to discover the best of America’s riveting history, exciting outdoors, great musical styles, friendly people and mouthwatering foods. Tennessee has endless blockbuster entertainment from Beale Street blues and Elvis’s rock ’n’ roll in Memphis to Nashville’s Music Row’s gospel, pop, and country music to the bluegrass of Appalachia. MEMPHIS HOTELS and NASHVILLE HOTELS There’s also eclectic attractions and events, including fainting goats, Moon Pie and Doodle Soup festivals, fine and folk art galleries, and the one-of-a-kind, places like Chattanooga’s Rock City. Hike through the deep forests of Big South Fork, raft down roaring Olympic gorges of the Ocoee River, follow pioneer footsteps through the Cumberland Gap and the Great Smoky Mountains, and catch a glimpse of the nesting American bald eagles in the cypress trees of Reelfoot Lake. History is everywhere, from the homes of US presidents such as Andrew Jackson to the Civil War battlefields of Shiloh and Stones River. Tour the self-guided Antebellum Trail through Davidson, Williamson and Maury counties, and ride along the ancient Natchez Trace Parkway in Middle Tennessee. Travel by paddlewheel in Clarksville and Savannah. Explore English ancestry in Elizabethton and Rugby, and follow the origins of country music in Bristol, Knoxville and Nashville. And there are museums to showcase it all. The Sequoyah Birthplace Museum in Vonore details Cherokee Heritage, and the American Museum of Science & Energy in Oak Ridge chronicles Tennessee's transition from the 18th century to the Atomic Age. The Stax Rock ’n’ Soul Museum and Sun Studio in Memphis reveal Tennessee's influential impact on American music in the last 50 years, and the Country Music Hall of Fame and Museum in Nashville showcases all of country music’s roots. The Casey Jones Village in Jackson illustrates one man’s deeds in legend and song, and the International Towing Museum in Chattanooga reveals how everything has a history worth telling. Hear Tennessee's best music for yourself in small town festivals and attractions. There’s the Smithville Fiddler’s Jamboree where famous musicians are actually discovered, and the Brownsville Blues Festival rooted in talent that started in the cotton fields and played all the way to Memphis. Dollywood theme park in Pigeon Forge is jam-packed with musical shows, and the Cumberland Playhouse in Crossville offers the best in Broadway musicals every year. PIGEON FORGE HOTELS Tennessee is a four season state. In deep winter, there’s cross-country skiing at Roan Mountain State Park. In spring, massive clouds of white dogwood blooms fill the forests of East Tennessee in and around Knoxville. In summer, cool off in Sweetwater’s underground Lost Sea, or take a pontoon ride at Birdsong Resort in Camden to see divers harvest freshwater pearls. In the fall, pause under a tree of brilliant fall leaves along one of our state park trails and overlooks.
