Chattanooga is the fourth-largest city in the U.S. state of Tennessee, with a population of 167,674 as of the 2010 census, and an estimated population of 171,279 in 2012.[7] The city, which has a downtown elevation of approximately 680 feet (210 m), lies at the transition between the ridge-and-valley portion of the Appalachian Mountains and the Cumberland Plateau. The city is therefore surrounded by various mountains and ridges. The official nickname for Chattanooga is the Scenic City, being reinforced by the city's growing national reputation as a haven for numerous outdoor activities. Several unofficial nicknames include River City, Chatt, Nooga, Chattown, and Gig City, demonstrating Chattanooga's claims that it has the fastest internet service in the Western Hemisphere.[8][9]
Chattanooga is internationally known for the 1941 song, the world's first gold record, "Chattanooga Choo Choo," by Glenn Miller and his orchestra.
Chattanooga is home to the University of Tennessee at Chattanooga (UTC) and Chattanooga State Community College.
Attractions
Chattanooga touts many attractions, including the Tennessee Aquarium, caverns, and new waterfront attractions along and across the Tennessee River. In the downtown area is the Chattanooga Choo Choo Hotel, housed in the renovated Terminal Station and exhibiting the largest HO model train layout in the United States. Also downtown are the Creative Discovery Museum, a hands-on children's museum dedicated to science, art, and music; an IMAX 3D Theatre, and the newly expanded Hunter Museum of American Art. The Tennessee Riverwalk, an approximately 13-mile (21 km) long trail running alongside the river, is another attraction for both tourists and residents alike.
Across the river from downtown is the North Shore district, roughly bounded by the Olgiati Bridge to the west and Veterans Bridge to the east. The newly renovated area draws locals and tourists to locally owned independent boutique stores and restaurants, plus attractions along the Chattanooga Riverpark system, including Coolidge Park and Renaissance Park.[118][119]
The Chattanooga Zoo at Warner Park is located a short distance from the downtown area.
Parks and natural scenic areas provide other attractions. The red-and-black painted "See Rock City" barns along highways in the Southeast are remnants of a now-classic Americana tourism campaign to attract visitors to the Rock City tourist attraction in nearby Lookout Mountain, Georgia. The mountain is also the site of Ruby Falls and Craven's House.[121] The Lookout Mountain Incline Railway is a steep funicular railway that rises from the St. Elmo Historic District to the top of the mountain, where passengers can visit the National Park Service's Point Park and the Battles for Chattanooga Museum.[122] Formerly known as Confederama, the museum includes a diorama that details the Battle of Chattanooga. From the military park, visitors can enjoy panoramic views of Moccasin Bend and the Chattanooga skyline from the mountain's famous "point" or from vantage points along the well-marked trail system.[123]
Near Chattanooga, the Raccoon Mountain Reservoir, Raccoon Mountain Caverns, and Reflection Riding Arboretum and Botanical Garden boast a number of outdoor and family fun opportunities. Other arboretums include Bonny Oaks Arboretum, Cherokee Arboretum at Audubon Acres, and Cherokee Trail Arboretum. The Ocoee River, host to a number of events at the 1996 Atlanta Olympics, features rafting, kayaking, camping, and hiking. Just outside Chattanooga is the Lake Winnepesaukah amusement park. The Cumberland Trail begins in Signal Mountain, just outside of Chattanooga.
Festivals and events
Chattanooga hosts the well-known Riverbend Festival, an annual nine-day music festival held in June in the downtown area. One of the most popular events is the "Bessie Smith Strut", a one-night showcase of blues and jazz music named for the city's most noted blues singer. The annual "Southern Brewer's Festival" and the "River Roast" festival celebrate such traditional Southern staples as beer and barbecue.
New events, such as GoFest!, the "Between the Bridges" wakeboard competition, Heritage Festival, and Talespin, complement well-established events, such as Riverbend and the Southern Brewer's Festival, and attract their own audiences.[124][125] Back Row Films is a city-wide celebration of film co-sponsored by the Hunter Museum of American Art, the Arts & Education Council, and UTC.[126]

Thanks for watching,

J Utah I love watching your videos! Is fun to see different places otherwise I wouldn't be able to see! Is also good if you are going to drive in the area! Thank you for this channel!
You need to do Kansas City
I was shocked to see what a nice town this is. Beautiful streets and sidewalks with mountain views. Impressive.
I've lived in major cities all over the south east and Chattanooga is by far my favorite. Historical yet modern, and small enough to be well connected. Active and outdoorsy culture. Great for bar hopping as well.
never mention Chattanooga in a list of major cities EVER
Thinking of relocating there.
I like Richmond and Charleston
You filmed this literally days after I was there. I visited Chattanooga three times in the summer of 2015. One of the nicest towns in America; I fell in love with it. You pass a bunch of restaurants where I ate. I literally was camping out of my car; sleeping parked at the Walmart outside of town, then hitting local landmarks the next day. These were weekend trips. You've kind of created a documentary memory of the exact time and place for me. So thanks.
I drove from New Jersey to Chattanooga, TN last Saturday, amazing road trip!
@Jade Carter 900 miles from midtown manhattan. 18 hrs for me but I need a 2-3 hour power nap lol.
Thanks J. Utah for doing one on my city! Chattanooga, TN rocks!
I LIKE CHATTANOOGA .I LOVED
Very nice ride. Sunday drivers I see. Safe travels ahead. God bless
Thanks. I am from there. So many memories
Nice town. I'm in Memphis, and I thought Chatanooga was a really small town. It is really nice.
+Chrisdougable It was nice. Very scenic along the river. Will be spending more time in the surrounding area next visit. Had a lot of fun on the last visit to Memphis on Beale St on St Patricks Day! What an experience!!
It is really a small city. I know because I was born there. However now I live in the Atlanta area, for the last 30 yrs. Lol.
@@Boxhead42 It's not anymore. Downtown and the surrounding neighborhoods have grown massively.
Chattanooga is a CITY not a Town, it has its own Greater Metropolitan area of Chattanooga as well. It may not be as big a City as Memphis or Nashville but it is a City the largest cities in Tennessee are Nashville, Memphis, Chattanooga and Knoxville. Known as the Top 4. Trust me I leave in Athens, Tenn. between Chattanooga and Knoxville and Cleveland Tennessee and if Chattanooga were a small town then Athens would be a village. Chattanooga and Knoxville and Cleveland are the go to places for alot of Athens residents as we are basically a town they are all cities.
Finally somewhat of historical. Thanks
THANKS.
My kind of town.
Jon Fairchild
Boring!
Awesome love my Hometown thanks for sharing
Used to I was living there I love it plus incredible lovely nice people. One of the best place to live with such a lovely people there I missed it love for place and people there always.
Great video! I lived and worked in Chattanooga during the early 80's. Actually worked downtown. Downtown during this time was a Ghost Town! Most of the buildings were boarded up. Great to see the downtown area alive again!
Really enjoyed this. 👌
Chatannoga İ.loveit so nice city
That is a gorgeous downtown with a TON of potential. Those mature trees are unbelievable. Impressive urban core footprint for a city its size. I must visit!

+Joaquin A exactly
Not many people walk around in the day time in the US because they're normally at work making money.
Babicka Fantastica Not true, Downtown Atlanta and Buckhead have plenty of people walking around during thr day time.
Is this on a Sunday?

This Brit needs coffee before I fall asleep!

Try to upload the route map of your journey
there is more to Chattanooga than Downtown.
+Alex McKeel Spent most of the time downtown. The surrounding scenery looked fantastic though! Any recommendations?
There is more to any city than downtown.
recommendations for day trips: Fall Creek Falls; Tellico; Cade's Cove; go up Signal Mtn on Friday night, check out the Mountain Opry, then hike the Cumberland Trail; the Chickamauga Battlefield out past Rossville; white water rafting on the Ocoee River, etc etc etc
I can go there anytime I want to 30miles a way
Work for a cab company here in Chattangoona. And there's a lot to do here but it takes lots of money . For a fun day out for let's say 2 people looking probably 500$ not including hotel .
Scot Harvey Yeah, but there are a lot of free or cheap things you can do for fun. hiking is free. So is swimming in the lakes and rivers that surround this area.
Scot Harvey
$500 for 2 people for 1 day .... Don't be silly .... it's Not London!

I'm not really impressed with Chattanooga. It seems very bland.

CamberSyndrome
I'm from England, love the States but I have to admit I was thinking the same thing watching this ....it looks Boring!
I've seen Gutlinburgh on videos ....that place looks like it has Loads more to see and do!
CamberSyndrome this place is far from boring. You've never lived here anyway. Stop lying you rat.
J.R. Productions
No where in the US is boring!
America is the Best country on earth, trust me.... This Brit has lived there!
I pray to God I could find some cheap land to build on there, 1acrea would even be great!
@C caymer
Where??
Most land in America is sold in large amounts, 10 or 20 plus acre.
You can buy land at $1000 an acres, but you may have to buy Over 100 acres, that makes your purchase $100,000
@C caymer
Yes I agree with you to a large extent, but you also have to be Extremely careful you don't get ripped off!
If you don't have lots of experience of buying land, it's easy to get ripped off!
I've also heard many horror stories on TH-cam about folks getting ripped off with buying land Online.
Some guy spent his life savings a few thousand dollars to buy some land in Texas.
He turned up at the door of a homestead ranch asking them if they knew where the land was.
They helped him and his pregnant wife and kids look for the land, it turns out that the land that was sold him Online did not even exist!
Folks need to check out those videos and Really do their research before they go buying land from Anyone, private sellers Online, in newspapers Etc!
I would also advise Everyone who is looking for land to buy, Make sure you Don't skip on Anything!!
Make sure you go over Everything with a Fine Tooth Comb!!
Just another boring city
Why?
