Fred W. Symmes Chapel
Fred W. Symmes Chapel, often called Pretty Place, sits high in the Blue Ridge Mountains at YMCA Camp Greenville, overlooking the Carolina landscape below. The open-air stone chapel frames a stunning view through its arched cross-shaped opening, making it one of the most photographed spots in the region. Sunrise is especially magical here, with soft light filling the valley and illuminating the mountains beyond. The chapel is accessible by a winding mountain road, with parking nearby, though it is occasionally closed for private events. Its quiet setting and panoramic views make it ideal for capturing both landscape and architectural compositions. (Cleveland, South Carolina, United States)
