Review:
Pikeville is a picturesque city on the eastern edge of Kentucky. The city is the site of the Pikeville Cut-Through, a rock cut that is known for being the largest civil engineering project in the western hemisphere.
Pikeville experienced a development boom in the 1990s, and it now houses several prominent schools and businesses. It hosts a popular annual cultural festival called Hillbilly Days. The boisterous festival, which attracts craftspeople, artists, and musicians, was primarily created to raise funds for Shriners Hospitals for Children. Scores of out-of-town visitors flock to Pikeville to participate in the lively gathering.
