TAHLEQUAH's origins trace back to the Cherokee National Council of 1843, more than 50 years before the area now known as Oklahoma became a state.
Tahlequah is home to the Cherokee Nation and Northeastern State University. Nearby are Lake Tenkiller and the Illinois River. Tahlequah has the oldest downtown in the state and boasts handfuls of locally-owned businesses, restaurants, and boutiques.
Traveling to Tahlequah gives you the opportunity to step back in time and experience what life was like in a 1710 Cherokee village when you visit Diligwa at Cherokee Heritage Center. Learn about Cherokee history at the Cherokee Heritage Center, Cherokee National Prison Museum, Cherokee National Supreme Court Museum, and John Ross Museum & Cemetery. You can also visit Hunter's Home, Oklahoma's only remaining antebellum plantation home.
After a day of culture and history, you can venture onto Lake Tenkiller or the Illinois River on a pontoon boat, paddle board, kayak, canoe, or raft. Enjoy the abundance of cool waters and endless landscape of trees. You can also hike and connect nature at one of the nearby state parks, preserves, or nature parks.
Long days exploring all Tahlequah has to offer can conclude in Downtown Tahlequah with boutique shopping and fine dining.
Tahlequah is more than one attraction. Tahlequah is home to adventure, culture, history, and indulgence. It is each and every site and attraction - from the Cherokee Heritage Center to Northeastern State University, Lake Tenkiller to the Illinois River - that makes Tahlequah TRULY TAHLEQUAH.
