As the birthplace of Dolly Parton, Sevierville, Tenn., offers no shortage of attractions for Parton fans on a pilgrimage. There’s the Pines Theater, where Parton gave her first concert, and the Sevier County High School, where Parton attended classes. And, of course, there’s Dollywood, the 150-acre theme park just south of town.
