Society & Culture:Places & Travel
Ridge upon ridge of forest straddles the border between North Carolina and Tennessee, where ancient mountains, covered in pine, glow in purple, pink and blue hues, as a smoky mist rises from their thick cloak of trees.

This is America's most visited national park — the Great Smoky Mountains.
