Ok, Everyone it’s time for the 4th day of the tour of The Christianville Metro Area. Today we’re going to visit The Center Piece of The Metro Area, Christian’s Heart, The GRAND MAMA CITY OF THE CHRISTIANVILLE METRO AREA! The City of Christianville! Christianville is the seat of the metro area and it is named after Christian. Most of Christianville lies inside Geography Line Rd. and Geography Beltway although some of the city does extend beyond those two roads. Geography Beltway is the major highway loop around the city and Geography Line Rd. is the city street loop around the city. The City of Christianville is filled with fun stuff to do, so let’s started. Let’s start on Christian Pkwy, Where most of Christianville’s Tourist Attractions are at. Christian Pkwy is a major thoroughfare in the metro area. Christian Pkwy. runs through 3 Districts; Historic, Christmas, and Geography. We start in the Historic District which is between Geography Line Rd. and Geography Beltway. Christian’s Historic District is an area with a street by street story of Christian’s Life. There are several museums along Christian Pkwy. About his life. From when and where he was born, schools he went to, and friends and loves that he had, Everything about Christian’s Life is on Christian Pkwy., in Christian’s Historic District. Many locals and Visitors alike love Christian’s Historic District. In fact, one local; Steven M., an honor student at North Christianville HS mentioned that Christian’s History of Travel Museum was his favorite museum and in his free time he drives up and down Christian Pkwy. With his friends every other weekend or two seeing all the museums. Now, Christian’s Historic District is awesome. But, there’s 2 other districts to visit.
(refer to Christmas and Geography District Map above)
The 2nd District is The Christmas District which is named after my favorite holiday. Christian’s Christmas District is across Geography Beltway from The Historic District. Christian’s Christmas District has Christmas Music, Carols, and Santa Claus all year long and Most of the streets names have Christmassy names like Christmas Music Ln., Santa Claus Ln., and Christmas Tree Ln. On Christmas Music Ln., 1 Mile east of Christian Pkwy. is the local radio station “98.1 The District” which plays Christmas Music year-long to The Christianville Metro Area and their music comes from Christmas Music Records which is next door to the radio station. Further down Christian Pkwy., is the White Christmas Museum and Maine Christmas Tree Museum. The first place we’re going to is The White Christmas Museum which is about what it would be like seeing a white Christmas. Many locals and visitors love this museum since there’s little snow in winter in Christianville, TN and they would love to see a White Christmas. The next place we’re going to is The Maine Christmas Tree Museum, this museum is about Christian’s fascination of tall trees and Christmas Trees in The North. During the holiday season, the museum puts Maine Christmas Trees up at the Visitors’ Center for locals and visitors to buy. And, Now we cross the Christmas and Geography District road dividing line, Christmas-Geography Ln. and drive into the 3rd District, The Geography District. The first place is we’re going visit is 1 mile east of Christian Pkwy. On Geography Blvd. is At 5800 Geography Blvd. Christian’s Geography Archives holds all of Christian’s geographical knowledge and where he stores all the information about where things are and how to get there. Across the street from the Christian’s Geography Archives is Christian’s Road Sign Archives which is similar to the geography archives but, it’s about all the road signs he has seen. Also, it has the history of how he started to love road signs. After that, we head back west toward Christian Pkwy. To find the Road Sign Museum. The Road Sign Museum is about Christian’s love for Road Signs, some of the websites that have them, and the people that take pictures of them. Now, we’ve reached the end of The Geography District and Christian Pkwy. turns into Tennessee St. as we enter Downtown Christianville.

Here in Downtown Christianville on Friends St. is where a lot of Christian’s Best Friends’ Festival is held. Christian’s Best Friends’ Festival is a once a year event held November 16-20 on Friends St. from Brooke St. to S. Izzy St. and it honors Christian’s best friends. Each friend has a day full of events related to that person. After driving further down Tennessee St. is the intersection of Christianville and Tennessee Streets which people all over The Christianville Metro Area know as the Heart of Christianville and the heart of me, Christian Smith-Centeno. The special part about this intersection is that whatever I’m feeling; the people around the intersection feel it. After visiting my heart, we drive 1 block down to West Michael Street, named for my little brother, Michael is Christianville’s teen and local hangout. Many Teens come down to hangout on West Michael Street everyday. But, most spend their Friday and Saturday Nights on West Michael Street to meet up with and make new friends. In fact, 18 year old Kendra, a student at West Christianville HS, said she comes down to West Michael Street every Saturday night to meet up with her friends from The Geography District and Brooke. Kendra says “ My friends and I meet at my friend’s house in The Geography District and we’ll ride the CARTA line down to West Michael Street”. Most of the streets in Downtown Christianville are named after people Christian knows and loves like Julie St., Brooke St, W. Michael St., and Kathy St. finally, we reach the Tennessee River and the Mississippi Border. But, to end the tour we see The Christian-Izzy Bridge which is a big highlight for travelers coming north into Christianville, because it looks like the Golden Gate Bridge in San Francisco and it’s a beautiful setting to the City of Christianville skyline.
There’s more of the metro area to see, stay tuned!
