Last Sunday, we asked you to tell us about the place in East Tennessee that always makes you smile. Like any new tradition, sometimes it takes a little time to get started. So this week, we’re making it even easier to join the conversation.

Everyone has that one place they recommend whenever friends or family come to town. It may not be the most famous attraction. It could be a family-owned restaurant, a scenic overlook, a small-town park, a hiking trail or a local shop that has become one of your favorites. Those recommendations often become someone else’s next adventure.

This Week’s Sunday Conversation

If a friend was visiting East Tennessee for just one day, what’s the one place you would insist they visit?

Tell us where it is and why it’s special to you. Keep it simple — a sentence or two is all it takes.

We’ll feature a selection of reader responses in next week’s Sunday Conversation so everyone can discover East Tennessee through the eyes of their neighbors.

You can participate in whichever way is easiest:

  • Leave your answer in the Facebook comments.
  • Email your response to news@knoxtntoday.com.

Answer in one sentence in the Facebook comments below. We’ll publish some of your favorites next Sunday.

Every great conversation starts with one voice. We hope you’ll help us get this one started. Your recommendation may introduce another reader to a place they’ve never visited and remind all of us why East Tennessee is such a special place to call home.
