Mariam spent many summers and winter holidays during her childhood in the Smokies, and this included an at least annual visit to the Dollywood amusement park. Named after Dolly Parton, it is a family-friendly theme park full of fun rides, delicious food, and Smokies-themed attractions and shows. You'll be in the area just in time for the springtime Flower & Food Festival!
America's most visited national park, Great Smoky Mountains, is an ideal getaway. Hike, camp, and experience one of America's oldest mountain ranges. We personally recommend an early morning visit to Clingman's Dome to see the sunrise, or a drive through Cades Cove.
