Review:
The Forbidden Caverns, beneath English Mountain in the eastern part of the Great Smokies, are not so forbidden as the name implies.
Numbered among the over 8,000 caves in the state of Tennessee, the Forbidden Caves are open for visitors who want to see the gorgeous underground caverns lit up with colorful and eerie lights.
Over the centuries, these caves have been used as shelter from extreme weather, as the location of illegal moonshine stills during Prohibition, and now as a tourist attraction.
Forbidden Caves is home to some beautiful rock formations, deep, quiet pools of water, a cold, clear stream, and a large wall of cave onyx.
