Chattanooga sits right on the banks of the Tennessee River, nestled between the Cumberland Plateau and the towering Appalachian Mountains. Its unique spot has led people to give it the appropriate nickname "The Scenic City."

Chattanooga is full of things to do - each one highlighting the city's beauty in a different way. The Southern Belle river boat will take you down the Tennessee River into the Tennessee River Gorge, offering some of the most stunning views in the state.

On the other end of the elevation spectrum is Lookout Mountain, home to Rock City, the Incline Railway, Ruby Falls, and Point Park, the fort at the tip of the mountain that looks over the valley below.

Chattanooga is only the fourth largest city in the state, so it wouldn't be widely known if it weren't for Glenn Miller's famous song "The Chattanooga Choo Choo." You can actually visit the famous train and stay in one of the famous Pullman train cars.

One of the coolest things about Chattanooga is its history told through architecture. The classic American river town is littered with brick warehouses, many of which have been re-purposed into housing, restaurants, and/or shopping centers.

Chattanooga is a city of bridges. The downtown area has many, but the Walnut Street Walking Bridge is the one to visit. You can take it from downtown to the parks and shopping areas on the north bank of the river.

We're sure that all of the exploring and adventuring you'll be doing in Chattanooga will leave you hungry. Don't worry - the city is known for its wide array of delicious food options. Try the Big River Grill, the famous Yellow Deli, or even Sugar's Ribs.
