Step into a century of aviation and space exploration at the Pima Air & Space Museum, an 80-acre site featuring over 400 aircraft and 125,000 artifacts. As one of the largest aerospace museums in the world, it offers something for everyone. Explore six display hangars filled with commercial, civilian, and military aircraft, including iconic models like the Boeing 787 Dreamliner, B-36 Peacemaker, SR-71 Blackbird, Air Force One, and P-51 Mustang. The museum is family- and pet-friendly, making it an ideal destination for all. Beyond the world-class exhibits, you can enjoy the Flight Grill restaurant, a playground, arcade games, and more.

Still maintaining its reputation as the 60s psychedelic-hippie-counterculture capital, this quarter's streets are dotted with Victorian houses, piercing salons and vintage clothing shops. Music and bookstores are the biggest draws to this area.

The effervescent Parrot Mountain and Gardens is located just outside Pigeon Forge and is a must for families, friends, locals, and visitors. The four acres harbor hundreds of tropical birds and thousands of trees, plants, and flowers. Guests are given the opportunity to interact directly with the beautifully plumed birds, petting and feeding them in the designated area. There is even a nursery where guests are welcome to hold the baby birds. Overlooking the Great Smoky Mountains is the deck, where lunch from the deli may be enjoyed while the birds serenade. A secret garden is lush with birds flying freely and pathways that display all of the gorgeous flowers.
