Whether you’re walking outside Neyland Stadium on a Saturday just as the leaves start to turn the color of Tennessee’s football jerseys, or you’re bundled up with your children for ice skating at Market Square, it doesn’t take long to see Knoxville has just about everything anyone could want in a place to call home.

Full of history and culture, Knoxville’s Appalachian roots are obvious from the music you can hear at one of our historic theaters or the scenery you’ll enjoy floating along the Tennessee River on one of more than five major lake ways in the region. If you prefer dry land, a hike in the Great Smoky Mountains National Park is just 30 miles from downtown Knoxville.
