Oconaluftee Indian Village
The Oconaluftee Indian Village is a replica of a Cherokee Community of the 1750s. Through guided tours, visitors experience the everyday life and structure of Cherokee society. Cherokee artisans make traditional crafts just as they did 250 years ago. Buildings from the period include the seven-sided Council House and a variety of Cherokee cabins.

"Unto
These Hills"
With "Unto these Hills" marking its 57th season, it features a new script, new director, new score, new choreography, new set design, new costuming and new cast members — all aimed at conveying a more culturally authentic, historically accurate and Cherokee-centered experience. In our global and interlinked era, as peoples and cultures collide and compete and combine with growing intensity, "Unto These Hills" becomes more of a must-see than ever before.
