Take a scenic drive down through the mountains, Blue Ridge to the east and the Great Smokies to the west, to reach Johnson City of East Tennessee. Johnson City oozes Southern charm and has the feel of a city much bigger than its size. If your visit is anything like mine, you will feel a connection right away. Johnson City has so much history (railroad, Civil War, and Revolutionary War) but doesnât get lost in the past. Itâs growing by leaps and bounds and one of the Tri-Cities (along with Bristol and Kingsport). Here is how to spend a perfect day in Johnson City, Tennessee.
