We started our day with a scenic drive through the mountains of Tennessee.
Our first stop was Ruby Falls/Lookout Mountain. Ruby Falls is a 145-foot high underground waterfall located within Lookout Mountain. The rich history of this cave includes Native Americans, cave explorers, notorious outlaws, and civil war soldiers. http://www.rubyfalls.com/
Next, we headed to Rock City or other wise known as "See Rock City" on all of the signs posted in Tennessee. Rock City is located at the top of Lookout Mountain. Rock City is natural massive ancient rock formations and gardens with over 400 native plant species, and breathtaking "See 7 States" panoramic views. This was our surprise and favorite part of the day! http://www.seerockcity.com/
Our last stop of the day was the Inclined Railroad. The Incline Railway ( incline of 72.7%) is the world's steepest passenger railway that overlooks the Chattanooga Valley. On top of the mountain is also a Civil War Battle field.
It was a l-o-n-g day filled with beautiful scenery and interesting history.
Worth every memory!
