LOOKOUT MOUNTAIN, Tenn. (AP) - See Rock City and you can see 1 million lights.

Rock City Gardens is preparing for its 15th annual Enchanted Garden of Lights beginning Friday and running through Jan. 2. A million lights will illuminate ancient rock formations along the tourist attraction's Enchanted Trail that features 30 holiday scenes.

Theme of the holiday display is the North Pole Adventure, including live elves harvesting candy canes.

Rock City, on Lookout Mountain on the Tennessee-Georgia line, is in its 77th season of operation. Besides the rock formations, it has gardens with more than 400 different native plant species and panoramic views.
