What to Do in Asheville

Learn More

Tucked away in the scenic Appalachians just off the Blue Ridge Parkway, Asheville should by rights be an unsophisticated backwater of interest only to adventure travel types and those who just want to get away from civilization. Yet somehow the city manages to combine the homey feel of a small mountain town with a funky, artsy vibe you'd expect to find in a much larger city. Things to see like museums and art galleries, carefully restored buildings and edgy civic sculptures, sidewalk cafés and local restaurants, street performers and a flourishing live music scene—they are all part of the mix that makes this vibrant destination so distinctive.
