The Great Smoky Mountain National Park
The Cherokee who first dwelled on this land named it the "Place of Blue Smoke." Today, the Great Smoky Mountain National Park remains as majestic and mysterious as ever. Their mystique and grandeur make the Great Smoky Mountains America's most visited - and most beloved - national park.
