Tucked into the Appalachian foothills, this self-proclaimed 'Gem Capital of The World' delivers on its sparkling promise. Try your hand at treasure hunting in Cherokee Ruby & Sapphire Mine, where the thrill of discovery awaits in every pan of dirt. The Franklin Gem and Mineral Museum houses dazzling specimens for those who prefer their gems already unearthed. Hiking trails through Nantahala National Forest offer encounters with nature that rival the brilliance of any gemstone. The historic Cherokee mound of Nikwasi stands as a thousand-year-old reminder of those who cherished this land first. After dark, catch performances at the Smoky Mountain Center for the Performing Arts, where mountain culture comes alive on stage.
