10 Pet Friendly hotels near Morristown, TN

Start your visit to this northeast Tennessee city by checking out one of its unique features: second floor sidewalks. That’s right, in the downtown area, there’s a network of overhead sidewalks that was constructed in the late 1960s. At the time, city leaders hoped that the addition of the “SkyMart” would revitalize the shopping district, which had lost business due to the arrival of a nearby shopping mall. The project was not able to fully revive the area, but the second floor sidewalks are still in place today and there are several city events and festivals that utilize the SkyMart area. Take a stroll through downtown to look at the architecture, shop at the local shops and grab a bite to eat at a local restaurant while viewing the SkyMart.Another popular attraction in Morristown is the Crockett Tavern Museum.
