entertainment options, as well as parks and recreational areas.
In Johnson City the dining and shopping opportunities are endless.

the only five-star meal in the Tri-Cities, visit the Troutdale
Dining Room in Bristol.
If outdoor recreation is your interest, you can have fun doing
just about any outdoor activity in the Tri-Cities region. Within a
short drive you can be on the Appalachian Trail, or in the Cherokee
National Forest. You can hike and bike your way through the many
trails, or take a short drive to one of the many Tennessee Valley
Authority (TVA) lakes like Watauga Lake. Many people like to go to
Winged Deer Park, which is a 200 acre soccer and softball park
facility that also offers access to Boone Lake, as well as over 2
miles of hiking trails. Another popular attraction in the area is
Bristol Caverns. Be sure to check out the caverns and learn more
about the gorgeous cavern structures. Golf is also popular in the
area, and Pine Oaks Golf Course, in Johnson City, has been a
favorite among the locals. For sports fans, check out one of the
Johnson City Cardinals baseball games, or the very popular NASCAR
races that take place each year at Bristol Motor Speedway.
In Johnson City, there is also a great deal to do if you are
interested in the arts and cultural events. The Tipton-Haynes State
Historic Site is a great place to learn more about the history of
the area. The historic home is the site of the archeological remains
of the early Woodland Indians, and also a historic battle site that
dates back to 1788. There are also several art galleries and museums
