While planning your trip to Knoxville, EscapeWizard.com urges you to visit James’s White’s Fort. James White is considered the Founder of Knoxville. After fighting in the Revolutionary War, he came out to settle on the land that was given to him for his service. Today, you can tour his log cabin, which remains in the same place that he originally built it.
EscapeWizard.com suggests visiting the Armstrong Locket House, also known as Crescent Bend, because of its location along the Tennessee River. It was built in the mid-1800’s and was restored in the 1970’s to its former glory. A visit will introduce you to past residents and an impressive interior. It is decorated in 18th century style, and includes an impressive silver collection and other beautiful works of art. Outside are beautiful gardens and fountains. A visit to Crescent Bent is a lovely way to spend an afternoon in Knoxville.
While you could spend days in town, if you’re up for an outdoor adventure, you’re in luck. Knoxville is located only a couple miles from the Great Smoky Mountains. In fact, the Great Smoky Mountains National Park was the idea of a Knoxville businessman. He originally urged wealthy Knoxvillians to purchase summer cabins close to where the park was established. As more people bought property, the idea of turning it into a national park grew in popularity. In 1933 the park opened. EscapeWizard.com recommends getting out in the morning and viewing the “smoke” that forms above the ridges before the sun makes its way above the mountains. It’s a lovely area to spend an afternoon hiking and enjoying nature.
