Cumberland Falls, located in Kentucky, USA, also known as Little Niagara, is a very famous waterfall near the Cumberland River. The waterfall is 21 meters high and 38 meters wide, making it a good place to admire the moon rainbow. Rainbows are usually seen after it rains, but at Cumberland Falls it is possible to see a rainbow at night when the full moon is full. The rainbow is formed by the mist emitted by the waterfall, and a seven-color moon-shaped rainbow or moonbow will hang on the waterfall, which is pleasing to the eye.Williamsburg · 19.6 km from downtown

The Great Smoky Mountains National Park, located at the junction of Tennessee and North Carolina, has about 10 million tourists every year and is the most visited national park in the United States. In 1983, UNESCO listed the Great Smoky Mountains National Park as a natural heritage and included it in the World Heritage List. The park covers an area of 200,000 hectares, and since it has not been destroyed by humans, it provides a relatively favorable environment for plants to grow. It is home to 3,500 species of plants and many endangered animals, especially where the world's largest group of salamanders is found. It is not only rich in natural heritage, but also has a long cultural history. Here you can learn about the way of life of early peasant families and communities living in the southern Appalachian Mountains. Many historic buildings still stand, and 97 historic buildings are concentrated in 5 areas, including: lumberjack sheds, barns, churches, rice mills and various other outdoor structures. However, these ancestors changed from difficult survival to predatory development. The logging industry almost destroyed the original forest in this area, and restoration has become the theme of today. Parks provide unique resources for outdoor recreation. You can stroll through the greenery and hike in the backcountry. Camping, fishing, outings, horseback riding, or just beautiful scenery are all great ways to relax. Four seasons are good seasons for traveling here. The mountains are blooming in spring, camping by the cool stream in summer, the leaves flying in autumn, and the quiet and pleasant in winter. The blue sky is always a very good reason for sightseeing.United States · Sevier County

It's a very small estate, with a huge lawn. In the US, it's nothing special, especially for a celebrity's former residence. But in Europe, there are tons of places like this. Personally, I don't think it's worth making a special trip here.

[Scenery] Even if you are not a huge country music fan, you can still be attracted by the entertainment factor of this place. I especially like the format of the performances here, as well as the number and range of movements. The entire performance will be broadcast live on the radio. The atmosphere is good, relaxed, friendly, and classic American music can also be heard. There is a small drawback, that is, the price of drinks is too high. If the price is reasonable, I believe more will be sold.
