  • 1. Christmas Place

    Store/Mall

    If you spent a quarter century traveling the world to collect Christmas ornaments and decorations, you'd have what you'll find in this four-store village. This is the go-to shopping destination for anything and everything that concerns the happy holiday, including personalized ornaments, novelty and designer lights, and a sleigh-load of ideas from looking at the dozens of designer-decorated trees. If you shop until you drop, you can cross the street to spend the night at the Inn at Christmas Place, where—you guessed it—the hotel maintains its Christmas sights and sounds all year long.

  • 6. The Old Mill and General Store

    Factory

    One of the most photographed structures in the country, this 185-year-old workhorse mill still grinds the flour and meal used for cooking at the nearby Old Mill Restaurant and the Old Mill Pottery House Cafe & Grille. Join millions of visitors who have purchased sacks of stone-ground products to take home as a special memory from the Smokies—not only a wide variety of flours and mixes (pancake, fish batter, etc.), but also jams, jellies, honeys, specialty foods, retro candies, and nostalgic crafts. Most of all, take time to listen to the sound of the 1830s mill grinding the grain. You might even want to try recording the sound with your smartphone as a unique no-cost souvenir.

  • 7. Titanic

    Costing $25 million for construction—and filled with artifacts valued at more than $4.5 million—this half-scale replica of the Titanic is designed to give you an idea of what it may have felt like to be a passenger aboard the sinking ship on that fateful night during her maiden voyage. You'll have the opportunity to climb the grand staircase, touch an iceberg, and try to stand on sloped decks.

  • 8. WonderWorks

    In an upside-down world, this is the sort of wacky, interactive learning museum that will help make sense of life's lingering questions like: What does it feel like to be shaken by an earthquake? Can you really move an object with nothing but brain power? How do you design a roller coaster? Schedule at least two hours to move through the activities and exhibits, or longer if you really want to dig into learning.
