The largest 10 Commandments you may ever see was built by human hands on a hillside in the Great Smoky Mountains. Drive up to the top (or walk up as a pilgrimage) then continue past the Commandments to the hill's highest point, All Nations Cross, where flags of all nations fly.

Set aside at least two hours to enjoy. There are walking trails and tons of things to explore and read for free!
[Yvette Pryor, 09/08/2021]Off the beaten path. Cafe closed due to Covid, but gift shop was open and had snacks and drinks. Clean restrooms; kind owner running the gift shop.

If you don't want to walk up the stairs you can drive up to the top of the Ten Commandments from a side road not clearly marked. I took the stairs and had to catch my breath a few times. Otherwise this is just one of those seeing it is believing it, mind blown.
