| Nestled
in the valley on the north side of the Great Smoky Mountains, Pigeon Forge
and Sevierville have grown into one large tourist destination separated
only by the Little Pigeon River. Together they have become one of
the fastest growing tourist areas in the South. This area proudly
boasts of being filled with action-packed entertainment for the whole family.
The
ten mile long parkway is lined with rides and attractions, eight outlet
malls, and theaters filled with lively entertainment. The Smokies
Baseball Stadium, flea markets, and antiques, located between Kodak and
Sevierville along Hwy 66 add interest and contribute to a calendar of events
that caters to every member of the family, with such events as: professional
baseball games, craft/gift shows, classic car shows, rod runs, conventions,
and music festivals, just to name a few.

bussel.
