Trip to the Biltmore Estate
Saturday January 17th: Visit the Biltmore Estate
Do not miss this once in a lifetime experience to explore one of America’s real-life castles. Be inspired by the relaxed elegance of George and Edith Vanderbilt's 250-room family home and country retreat in Asheville, NC. Discover original art from masters such as Renoir, magnificent 16th-century tapestries, Napoleon's chess set, a library with 10,000 volumes, a Banquet Hall with a 70-foot ceiling, 65 fireplaces, an indoor pool, bowling alley, and priceless antiques. Opened to friends on Christmas Eve 1895, this French Renaissance chateáu remains America's largest privately owned home.
This is sure to be a memorable experience so do not miss this wonderful opportunity.
Sign up is at the front desk of the International House and the cost of the trip is $30, which is an extremely good price to visit the Biltmore. Tickets to view the estate normally are around $50. We will meet at the International House at 7:00am and load the bus promptly at 7:30am. We will also pickup from Sutherland/Golf Range at 7:30am. Please contact the I-House if you have any questions or comments at 865-974-4453 or email at ihouse@utk.edu.
