Good morning, Asheville, it’s your resident redhead, Brook. If there’s one thing we can all agree on, it’s that Asheville is an incredibly lovely place. And it’s not just the glorious mountains and scenic vistas around us — it’s the city itself. Sure, other places are nice and all, but what other cities are as easy on the eyes as ours? Not too many, if you ask me.
From our vibrant arts scene and the incredible dishes our chefs crank out to our historic landmarks and our incredibly strollable downtown, Asheville is, hands down, one of the prettiest places out there.
Add in my favorite social media platform, Instagram , and you have a match made in social media heaven. It’s why no matter where I go in town, it’s hard for me to put my phone away because I want to preserve the beauty in digital film for all of eternity.
That’s why we want to know where you go in town to get the most enviable pics for your social media feed that will stop folks mid-scroll.
#Asked: Now that you know which social media platform I like best, we want to know where you go in town to get the most enviable pics for your social media feed that will stop folks mid-scroll and why. But first, here’s a list of some fine-looking spots around town. Did we miss any especially Instagrammable locales? Do tell us in the comments here, please + thank you.
