The city had a rough time during the American Civil War and then during the Depression, but they are managing to bring the city back to life. The most visual project of progression is the city's downtown, that is welcoming businesses back since 2000. You can also find many galleries and places for the arts and shopping and dining options.
Knoxville is also a place known for a having a big cultural vibe. They are the home of many famous festivals throughout the year, especially country music festivals, and they have the Knoxville Opera, which has a choir that sounds like the angels.
Things to do in Knoxville:
If you enjoy a greener vibe you must visit the World's Fair Park, considered to be "a natural wonder in the heart of Knoxville." This massive garden includes the Tennessee Amphitheater, different spots for special events, and the Sunsphere, which has an impressive observation deck with spectacular 360º vistas. Make sure you bring your camera.
To continue with the natural attractions, you can schedule a visit to the Ijams Nature Center. This is the perfect place to establish a complete connection with nature and its wonders. You can rent a canoe and enjoy a tranquil ride on Mead’s Quarry Lake. You can take cool pictures inside the stone structure of the Ross Marble Quarry Loop or you can let kids enjoy and explore at Jo's Grove.
The Tennessee Theater is an icon in the city and this fact makes it deserve a visit. Known as a grand entertainment palace, once you are here you can check their calendar and buy some tickets to enjoy a nice play in a very nice place.
You can end your visit with the Knoxville Museum of Art. This place celebrates the art of East Tennessee through its exhibitions. It doesn't matter if its old or new, if it's good you will find it within these walls.
