Introducing Eastern Tennessee
Dolly Parton, Eastern Tennessee’s most famous native, loves her home region so much she has made a successful career out of singing about girls who leave the honeysuckle-scented embrace of the Smoky Mountains for the false glitter of the city. They’re always sorry.

Largely a rural region of small towns, rolling hills and river valleys, the eastern third of the state has friendly folks, hearty country food and pastoral charm to make most anyone feel at home.
The lush, heather-tinted Great Smoky Mountains are great for hiking, camping and rafting, while the region’s two main urban areas, Knoxville and Chattanooga, are easygoing riverside cities with lively college populations and kicking music scenes.
