Nashville may be the capital of the state of Tennessee, but it’s actually much more famous as the country music capital of the world. If you are a fan of country music, or music in general, Nashville is a must-visit destination. Here you can visit several one-of-a-kind museums dedicated to the genre and attend amazing live performances every day at pretty much every bar or venue across town.
There are two places that you absolutely must visit while you’re in town: the Country Music Hall of Fame Museum (for obvious reasons), and the legendary Grand Ole Opry House, known as country’s most famous stage. Once you get those out of the way, head over to Broadway and snatch yourself a pair of cowboy boots before embarking on a tour of the many bars and restaurants that make up Nashville’s most famous street.
And if you’re looking to escape the country-ness of it all, you might want to head over to East Nashville where you will find hip new restaurants and bars full of young and artistic crowds. It’s definitely worth checking out the area, if only for the several Insta-ready murals you will find there.
While there is no Amtrak train service that goes to Nashville, there are several bus carriers that serve the city and the main bus station is located very conveniently downtown, not too far from all the hustle and bustle of Music City. The Nashville International Airport is located on the outskirts of the city, but there is a direct bus transit service that will take you from there all the way to the heart of town.

Asheville is a vibrant city with a developing art scene and plenty of historic buildings, where a modern lifestyle blends seamlessly into the historic old town. Standing among the most iconic attractions in the city is the Basilica of St. Lawrence, a majestic cathedral with the largest freestanding elliptical dome in the country. Other notable historic sites include the Charters of Freedom monument and the Carl Sandburg Home National Historic Site, which was the actual home of the famous poet Carl Sandburg. As a major city in the Blue Ridge Mountains, Asheville is close to many scenic hikes around the Blue Ridge Parkway, including the Craven Gap Trail, Craggy Pinnacle Hike, and Bent Creek. No wonder it’s one of the best destinations for mountain vacations!
When the sun goes down and your stomach is growling, Asheville will treat you with its excellent local dishes. Some notable establishments include Berliner Kindl German Restaurant, a great German spot with authentic German fare, and Pack's Tavern, a local favorite with beautiful dining settings.
Southeastern Stages provides most of the bus service into and out of Asheville. Air travel arrives at the nearby Asheville Regional Airport, which is situated 11.1 miles from downtown.
