Chattanooga, Tennessee

Chattanooga means rock coming to a point in the Creek Indian language -- aka, Lookout Mountain, the city's major attraction. Back on the ground, you'll find fun in abundance, starting at the world's largest freshwater aquarium, the Tennessee Aquarium. If your interest is history, there's plenty of Civil War, Native American and 20th century historic material to pour over.

Chattanooga boasts a myriad of things, including the world's longest pedestrian bridge, the Walnut Street Bridge and is the birthplace of miniature golf.

Why not see historic and beautiful Chattanooga for yourself; you won't be disappointed.
