Review:
A visit to Knoxville would not be complete without spending some time in the Old City. The revitalized downtown area that holds secrets from Knoxville’s past has become a hotspot for visitors and locals to enjoy excellent authentic restaurants, coffee houses, and art galleries. Coined as “Knoxville’s independent alternative,” the area comes alive at night as a vibrant music scene that showcases East Tennessee’s best musical talents.
The area’s beautiful historic architecture has been refurbished to house a blending of Knoxville’s diverse history and cultures. Start at the corner of Central St. and Jackson Avenue and experience the Old City.
