Dollywood is no ordinary attraction. But then again, Dolly Parton, the park's namesake, is no ordinary performer. This theme park is co-owned by Parton, and it's good, clean family fun for everyone that includes rollercoasters, kiddie rides, craft shops, and great restaurants. Plus, you may even have a chance to see Dolly take stage and perform all her biggest hits.

The kids will love learning about flowers, plants and all the other natural wonders that inhabit the Knoxville Botanical Gardens and Arboretum. This 44-acre garden features an historic landscape that is adorned with foliage and plants that are not only indigenous to the area, but also combine to create a natural oasis that is as relaxing as it is beautiful. There is also a plant nursery on site that houses even more picturesque greenery.

The Mabry-Hazen House is an essential part of your visit to Knoxville, especially if you are a fan of history. The structure was once the headquarters for both Union and Confederate forces.

The home is also listed on the National Register of Historic Places, so make sure you take your camera along to capture images of this truly dramatic site.
