I may be near the state of Arkansas next year and can probably take a week to travel around the state. It’s one of the few states that I have never been to. Any suggestions on what to see and do?
 

Crater of Diamonds State Park in Murfreesboro. The only diamond-producing site in the world open to the public where you can search for diamonds and keep what you find. located at 209 State Park Road, Murfreesboro Ar.

Hot Springs National Park. You can see the historic Fordyce Bathhouse, which now serves as a visitor center, or experience a modern spa treatment at the Buckstaff Bathhouse.
 
I went through there before and loved it. Especially the scenery and the diners on the back roads. Food is great.
 
Cultural experiences and historical events are an interest. Also, Where can I buy moonshine?
Several distilleries in the state manufacture and sell their own moonshine, and you can find it at their locations and sometimes in local liquor stores.
You can find legally-produced moonshine from local distilleries and some larger brands at liquor stores in "wet" counties across Arkansas. (watch you don't end up in a dry county). :)
