The evening, I photographed Christmas in Dillsboro, NC we hopped over to the quaint Smoky Mountain community of Bryson City, North Carolina before dusk. While we walked around taking pictures, we bought coffee and cinnamon buns from Mountain Perks on Depot Street, which isn’t pictured but is left of the train across the street in the first picture. The coffee was good, but those home-made cinnamon buns were delicious!
In Bryson City, you can catch a ride on The Smoky Mountain Railway and you can also board in Dillsboro. A Christmasy train adds to the magic of the holidays. Don’t you just love it, the engine is the Polar Express?
It was such a cozy feeling visiting the Bryson City community during the festivities of the Christmas season. What small towns in your area give this sort of feeling?
Next week, I will share the last of my Christmasy pictures before I get back to everyday shots. That’s a snap for this week. It’s so nice to see & I hope you’ll decide to make it a repeat visit each week to share in my photo ops. Wanna make me or someone else happy? Then, leave a comment! I’ll be hopping over to see you soon!

so pretty – definitely a place I’d like to visit
Hmm…I wonder how far that is from me? I’m just outside of Charlotte, NC
Very sweet photos. Thanks for linking on Amanda’s Books and More.
That is so cool! 🙂
Happy Wordless Wednesday! My entry is here .
How cool, the Polar Express train. Since it’s snowing here, I appreciate the sunshine.
we have the Christmas train come through our small town. the kids love it. They watched Polar Express for the first time this Christmas – loved it.
Aww, we just took down our Christmas tree this week. Looking at the train, I want it back!
Those are nice pics! I always love to see the trains.
Oh, I’ll have to take my girls next year! They love trains so much and the Polar Express became a favorite movie of theirs this year. I love the photos of the trains – the colors are great.
Muy bonito ese tren antiguo.
We have got a railway museum here, too. And it also offers rides on very selected Sundays, but we have never managed catching one.
Looks like a fun place to visit. We’re lucky in that there are a lot of quaint towns near us with lots of charm. Christmas time is the best.
Thanks for sharing the photos and your review of this quaint little town! I bet it’s fun to visit any time of year!
I would love to visit a place like that looks very quaint too 😉
Have a good week or what’s left of it.
There is something like this up in East Texas. Fun!
Here’s my Wordless Wednesday!
The girls would love a train ride and so would I in the Smokies 🙂
