Knoxville, TN has had the tendency to attract lots of visitors and tourists who flock to the area to enjoy the magnificent scenery and visit the multitude of area parks including the Great Smoky Mountains- the most visited National Park in the country.
While the Great Smoky Mountains are great and have a lot to offer sometimes I don't feel like battling all the tourists trying to get up there. Sometimes, I just get the urge to throw the kids in the car and enjoy the great outdoors instead of fighting through traffic.
Ijams Nature Center located in South Knoxville is a great place to visit.
Inside the visitors center you will find a nature center devoted to education- especially conservation and recycling, fun and interactive nature displays, and even a live animal collection.
The building is built with sustainability in mind and even the bathrooms are environmentally friendly.
Whether you are looking for just a short nature walk or a day of hiking, you can find it at Ijams Nature Center- the trails are well maintained and it is a great place to get your minds off the stresses of everyday life.

Many Knoxville Home Buyers first start their home buying search by looking at homes first and then start working on the financing aspects of purchasing a home. The Knoxville TN real estate market is picking up and in several areas and price ranges have actually entered into a Sellers Market.
If you are serious about buying a home in Knoxville TN, Maryville, Alcoa, Oak Ridge, or surrounding areas you should start by getting your financing in order first.
There are several reasons for this:
If you are a 1st Time Home Buyer in Knoxville it is even more imperative that you get pre-approved as the $8000 tax credit is quickly coming to an end- you must be closed on your home by November 30, 2009.
Many mortgage lenders are requesting 30-45 days to close (to allow cushioning for potential delays) meaning that in order to be safe you should plan on being under contract by October 15th to make sure you don't miss out.

Natural beauty is one this that you will find no shortage of in the Knoxville TN area. Knoxville TN is located in a valley and is surrounded by mountain rains and contains an abundance of lakes, streams, and creeks.
If you are looking for a great day hike with beautiful sites but don't want to battle tourists at the Great Smoky Mountain National Park try Ijams Nature Center. Ijams is not only free, but has a variety of hikes which makes it great for beginners and avid hikers alike.
One of my kid's favorite hikes is the Meade's Quarry Hike. The clear quarry waters allow you to easily view the aquatic life including fish, tadpoles, and if you are lucky even turtles.
