Sure enough, in Asheville we are known for our hippies. Some have labeled us Hippie City USA, and others call Asheville… One Big Hippie Fest. I recently read on Twitter where someone said they finally found out where all of the hippies have gone, referring to Asheville North Carolina. Either way, if you have even a little “hippie” in you; you will surely like this place.
On the alot website, in the travel section, they have named Asheville #1 in a recent article titled “10 of America’s Hippie Hideouts“. Here is the full list:
- Asheville North Carolina
- Eugene, Oregon
- Boulder, Colorado
- Berea, Kentucky
- Burlington, Vermont
- Ithaca, New York
- Arcata, California
- Bisbee, Arizona
- Missoula, Montana
- Eureka Springs, Arkansas
It seems that people on the city counsel & others are trying to change the face of Asheville by implementing various restrictions on the daily goings on in Asheville such as the street performers.
I always thought we were number one, and now this just confirms it!
Haha exactly James!
