I always wanted to learn more about my people. My great great aunt was full blood cherokee and my grandma is half. I'm glad that there are places like this so that people can learn more about the tribe!

I want to go. Makes me miss my great grandma. She was 100% Cherokee Indian. She died when she was 102 yrs old.

Look how cute grandma with that smile. Like it was just life. Glad it became something people are interested in it.

my grandmother who was part Cherokee told me when i was little that Cherokees did not live in teepees but in homes made out of the Earth and things. That is how I knew about such things. But schools today show all Native Indians live in Teepees. I told my teachers they did not and told her what my grandmother said. they just blew me off. But now I tell my granddaughters about the Real Cherokee's what my grandmother and great grandmother taught me. I found out that my ancestors were also in the Trail of Tears I was shocked cause I did not know this. amazing. just amazing. Even tho I do not look like i have Cherokee ancestry I have a History of evidence that I do. My daughter did a DNA test and showed she was 4percent Native American. Her Father was also has Cherokee ancestory that i did not know about. His DNA has also Native American in his blood. just amazing. I love History and learning about it.

It's been closed for years. That's sad. I hope they finish the rework soon. I'd like to make a trip.

I love this video. unfortunately with me being Taino living in America we never get recognized and I’ve even been pushed aside by other Native American brothers and sisters from other tribes because my people aren’t seen as “real Native American “. I hope someday we become equals and our recognized as natives as well .

i remember my friends and i shooting arrows there, one of my favorite memories of my childhood. im not in touch with my heritage but i feel as a cherokee i need to to research my family line and learn and inform others:) im so jealous of my sisters Native American features, she’s beautiful.
