Dolly Parton’s theme park is expanding with the opening of a new star-rating resort in the grand Great Smoky Mountains, alongside a string of other developments. Here are her latest hits.
1. Dollywood adds new attractions
The new star of Dolly’s theme park is Big Bear Mountain, the longest roller-coaster-at Dollywood, which takes two minutes to move around nearly 4,000ft of track. If this isn’t your taste, head to the freshly released Dolly Parton Experience, a practical exhibition describing Dolly’s rags-to-riches story.
2. Her tour bus offers a superstar sleepover
With the Dolly’s customized tour bus now in retirement at Dollywood’s Dream More Resort, fans can peek inside the singer’s maximalist wardrobe (衣橱) before sleeping in her luxurious bed. The Tour Bus Experience also offers a big meal with wine, as well as the option to book a cruise (游轮) around the mountainous landscape in a custom Jeep.
3. Moonshine gets hip
Moonshine, an eye-wateringly strong whisky, was once the first choice for Prohibition-era bootleggers. Today, Dolly’s niece, Danielle Parton, is part of a growing movement to update the drink’s secret image with the opening of her Tennessee micro-distillery (酿酒厂), Shine Girl. Take a tour before sitting down at the bar, where red-velvet-flavored cocktails are occasionally shaken by Danielle herself.
