Nestled in the southeastern United States, Great Smoky Mountains National Park, with an annual visitor count exceeding ten million, consistently ranks as the most popular national park in the country. Its gateway town, Gatlinburg, has become a "gold mine of traffic" for global investors, thanks to its fairy-tale vacation atmosphere and year-round tourism boom.
Today, this place is not only a dream destination for travelers but also, due to the benefits of the EB-5 rural project policy, a dual channel for unlocking U.S. green cards and asset allocation. The "Great Smoky Mountains • Marriott Hotel" EB-5 rural project, jointly developed by Worldway Group and the U.S. Billion Dollar Fund Peach Tree Group, is making its global debut in a scarce manner, ushering in a win-win era of "tourism economy + identity planning" for investors.
The Most Popular National Park in the U.S.: Great Smoky Mountains National Park
Great Smoky Mountains National Park is located at the border of Tennessee and North Carolina. The park is renowned for its rich biodiversity, stunning mountain landscapes, and well-preserved Southern Appalachian cultural heritage, making it the most visited national park in the United States, with visitor numbers ranking first in the nation for consecutive years.
Since 2012, Great Smoky Mountains National Park has averaged approximately 11.5 million visitors annually. The year 2021 was the busiest on record, reaching 14.1 million visitors. In 2022, the number was 12.9 million. In 2023, visitor numbers increased again to 13.3 million, 42% higher than the ten-year average, surpassing the combined visitor numbers of Yellowstone, Yosemite, and the Grand Canyon. In 2023, the park generated a $3.8 billion contribution to the tourism economy, with regional popularity continuing to rise. The national park's 850-mile hiking network, the largest in the U.S., along with the Appalachian Gold Trail, attracts 3 million visitors each year who choose to stay overnight, creating a stable and substantial demand for accommodations.
Fairy Tale Vacation Town: Gatlinburg
