The historical sites and buildings are beautiful and there's a laid back atmosphere that seems to fill Chattanooga, even though it's a major tourist area. It's a beautiful place to visit.

You have GOT to see the Penquins and the River Otters at the Tennessee Aquarium! They are my favorites! The best time to go is when the divers are in the shark tanks. It is amazing!
