Amazing engineering suspension bridge right over the Falls river giving a great view of the Falls. If you're squeamish or motion sensitive but want to walk the bridge, then stay in the center where stability is better

The museum building remains closed while preparations are made to move to town. However, tours for groups of 10 or more, and special events provide available viewing of selective and remarkable works on display in varied locations. Reservations are necessary, but easily arranged. I look forward to once again viewing their unique collection of sacred art when their own building opens in downtown Greenville which is growing, thriving, and among the best places to live and visit in the USA.
