From the beauty of the Tennessee River to the fun-filled Market Square, Downtown Knoxville is a neighborhood in motion. Those who might want to see it all (or just take an amazing selfie) head to the iconic Sunsphere for a 360-degree panorama of downtown, the river, and (on a clear day), the Smoky Mountains. The Sunsphere, which resembles a golden disco ball on stilts, was built for the 1982 World’s Fair and stands 266 feet tall.
But as impressive as the Sunsphere may be, it’s just the beginning of Downtown Knoxville’s not-so-hidden treasures. Other amazing destinations include the historic Blount Mansion, the Bijou Theater, Old City Hall, and the James White Fort. For those who enjoy a little shopping and dining with their historic destinations, Market Square, Old City, and Gay Street are sure to be a hit.
Downtown Knoxville is home to the University of Tennessee, Zoo Knoxville, and boat cruises on the Tennessee River. After a day of shopping in Market Square, be sure to stop by the landmark Oliver Hotel and have a drink at the Peter Kern Library – you’ll be glad you did! With a cozy feel of a bygone era, you’ll have to discover the “secret” way in (look for the red light in the alley).
