      I definitely recommend visiting the Smoky Mountain area!!! It is an amazing area with lots of fun things to do and beautiful places to see. If you are interested in visiting then I will be making a playlist specific to that area and also have a few other CZcamsrs to check out that you would be interested potentially in viewing to further research areas you would like to go.

      You could easily spend between 2-6 hours there.... depending on if you stop and look at each display or do any of the interactions, eat inside the cafe etc... I would suggest planning a half day minimum
