The Blue Ridge Parkway Celebrates 75 Years
In 2010, the breathtaking Blue Ridge Parkway celebrates its 75th anniversary with festivities scheduled in many of the charming mountain communities it winds its way past. The 469-mile Blue Ridge Parkway is a both a scenic byway and a spectacular national park, complete with hiking trails, towering trees, diverse wildlife and cultural points of interest. “America’s Favorite Drive” makes it way past many points of interest in the Blue Ridge Mountains; Linville Falls, the Museum of North Carolina Minerals, Mount Mitchell State Park, Craggy Gardens alive with Rhododendron, the Folk Art Center, and Mount Pisgah are a few. The Blue Ridge Parkway Destination Center with information, exhibits and programs is just east of Asheville on the Parkway.
Asheville NC: In The Heart Of It All
The Blue Ridge Mountains of Western North Carolina are anchored by the hip, urban hub of Asheville. For an Asheville vacation, visit Biltmore Estate, the NC Arboretum, and the Thomas Wolfe Memorial, or just stroll through downtown. Historic Asheville is a mid-size city and its streets are lined with inspiring architecture and sculpture, delicious restaurants, locally owned shops and galleries, and venues with live music. Base your mountain vacation in the city’s vibrant center to take full advantage of the arts, eateries and nearby outdoor recreation or choose one of the many Blue Ridge Mountains’ beautiful, quaint small towns with their own Blue Ridge cabins, Blue Ridge inns, spas and outdoor activities for a romantic and relaxed mountain getaway.
