A lovely little town cozily rested in a mountain range is known to its inhabitants as Bryson City. As a gateway through the Smoky Mountains, the town in North Carolina is split by the Tuckasegee river.

Many attractions are offered to the several tours such as coal and writing on the Great Smoky Mountain Railroad, staying at a cabin on a mountain side, white water-rafting down the Tuckasegee River, and many more charming activities.
With an average annual temperature of 55゚F, it is a great place to escape the scorching Floridian heat. I will never forget waking up on a chilly autumn morning and watching the rising Sun glisten on the red leaves that floated their way gracefully to the ground. Staying in a cabin on top of one of the several surrounding mountains is a vacation I would love to repeat.
The Great Smoky Mountain Railroad is a 53 mile long railway that coasts through the mountains dotted around North Carolina and Tennessee. It was the 1st train I ever rode; it was a bumpy ride, but the scenic view was worth it. With several stops along the way, tourists had the ability to take several photos and purchase souvenirs to remind themselves of the peaceful journey throughout the Smokies.

Several trails also exist for visitors to take in much of the lavish scenery or to observe the native wildlife going on with her own business. Common animals throughout the smokies are white-tail deer, black bears, elk, turkeys, raccoons, woodchucks, and several other types of wildlife. I have seen many bears on the trails I have journeyed upon. I kept my distance and watched as the magnificent beasts walked by and was fascinated by their behavior.
