Waynesville North Carolina
|
Waynesville is located in the western part of North Carolina, on the outskirts of the Smoky Mountain National Park and the Cherokee Indian Reservation. We are surrounded by national forestries, awesome mountains and hundreds of waterfalls.
North Carolina is an enviromentally rich state. We have the highest concentration
of minerals, ores and gems that you can find in the entire U.S.! This state is also
known as the gem capital of the U.S. and here you can find everything from rubies and
emeralds to gold! This is where the first real gold rush happened!
We are not only blessed with great crops and fertile soil but with spectacular
views and loads of wildlife. North Carolina is a state with much beauty, history and heritage.
