HISTORY OF ASHEVILLE...
*Ah, the Paris of the South...
Asheville, NC, is the official seat of Buncombe County and the unofficial capital of Western North Carolina (WNC).
There is more to Asheville, North Carolina, than the Biltmore HouseBiltmore Village, and the Grove Park Inn. The new gem in the southern crown is Downtown Asheville. It is a designated All-American City (1997). Above all, Asheville is known for its sense of community, eclecticism and free spirits. Click Here>
