Journey down our historical roads and trails for a stroll into Tennessee's legendary past. Tour Tennessee's heritage towns, and immerse yourself in the state's diverse past from Davy Crockett to Elvis Presley. Day One Start with Memphis’ most famous attraction, Elvis Presley's Graceland. Touring Graceland is a one-of-a-kind experience that will lead you on Elvis's fascinating journey to superstardom. You and your group will experience the cultural changes that led to the birth of Rock 'n' Roll and see, first-hand, how Elvis became the most celebrated entertainer in the world.

A 'must' in Memphis is to enjoy lunch on your own down on Beale Street at any one of the many delicious eateries famous for barbeque! The Memphis Pink Palace Museum was originally designed to be the dream home of wealthy entrepreneur Clarence Saunders. It’s name comes from the mansion's ornate pink Georgian marble facade. Saunders, an entrepreneur and founder of Piggly Wiggly, began building the house in the early 1920's but, due to a legal dispute with the New York Exchange, he had to declare bankruptcy and the unfinished building was eventually given to the city in the late 1920’s for use as a museum.

  • Civil War Trail
    Crescent Bend During the Civil War, Crescent Bend was used by both Union and Confederate Armies as a command center and hospital. Thousands of soldiers encamped and fought skirmishes on its farmland. It is also noteworthy for this era for possibly being a safe house on the Underground Railroad. A hidden trapdoor beneath the main staircase led to a room where runaway slaves were sheltered. Drury Armstrong's Crescent Bend started with 600 acres of land on the north side of the Holston River (now called the Tennessee River). Within a few years he acquired another 300 acres on the south side. He owned several other tracts of land in and around Knoxville, upon one of which a famous Civil War battle, the Battle of Armstrong's Hill, would be fought. In addition to these land holdings, he also owned 50,000 acres of wooded and pastoral mountain land in Sevier and Blount Counties, Tennessee. He gave the name “Glen Alpine” to his land between the West Prong of the Little Pigeon River and the East Prong of the Little Tennessee River. This land today makes up about 10% of Great Smoky Mountains National Park. During the Civil War, the house was used by both Union and Confederate Armies as a command center and hospital. Thousands of soldiers encamped and fought skirmishes on Crescent Bend farmland. Originally the Union Army controlled Crescent Bend and built an earthen fortification around the house; began on the western side of the house, wrapped around the back of the house, and connected with Kingston Pike on the east.

As defined by Title 36 of the Code of Federal Regulations (36 CFR) 800.16 (I)(1), historic properties are those properties deemed eligible for listing or that are already listed on the National Register of Historic Places (NRHP). As a federal project requesting a permit from a federal agency, the Clinch River (CR) Small Modular Reactor (SMR) Project is subject to review and consultation under Section 106 of the National Historic Preservation Act (16 U.S. Code [USC] § 470 et seq.) and its implementing regulations 36 CFR Part 800.

A total of 59 recorded archaeological sites, four isolated finds (IF-1 [2015], IF-1 [2011], IF-2, IF-3), one non-site locality (NS-1), and one cemetery have been identified within or immediately adjacent to the approximately 1305-acre (ac) CR SMR Project archaeological Area of Potential Effect (CR SMR Project archaeological APE).
