Those I met prayed before performing.  They explained to us their deep respect for the Great Creator of these mountains, and and of this world. No photos were allowed during this time.  

 if you were interested in having a photo taken with an Indian at any other time, they were happy to oblige. However, they do expect a tip for the pose.  Many of the Indians do dress in their full Indian attire and look the way Indians do on TV.  These Indians are all very friendly, and welcome you to their reservation in Cherokee.

Like the Tennessee side of the Smokies, there's plenty to do!  Special events take place throughout the year.  Enjoy hiking trails, waterfalls, breathtaking views, and more.
