Description
Salacoa Creek Park lies within the original bounds of the Cherokee Nation. In fact, it is just minutes away from New Echota, the capital of the Cherokee Nation in the early 1800's. It was at New Echota that the Cherokee held court, printed their bilingual newspaper and formed a government fashioned after the U.S. government. Vistors to Salacoa Creek Park will enjoy visiting the restored Cherokee buildings as well as the interpretive museum.Directions
