Greenville Travel Tips

  • Wander through Greenville's revitalized, tree-lined downtown, which retains its Main Street USA charm while offering a sophisticated mix of shops, restaurants, and galleries.
  • Roam Reedy Park, a once-neglected area transformed into a picturesque downtown attraction, with a waterfall, public gardens, amphitheaters, a café, and a walking promenade.
  • Pay respect to baseball great and Greenville-area native "Shoeless Joe" Jackson, who's buried at Woodlawn Memorial Gardens just outside downtown. There's also a Jackson statue at the bottom of South Main Street.
  • Visit the Bob Jones University Museum, which has a large and impressive collection of Italian and sacred art, including works by Rubens, Van Dyck, and Tintoretto.
  • Schedule a visit during spring, when the breathtaking azaleas are in bloom. Autumn's ideal for a day trip to the Blue Ridge Mountains.
