7 days in Nashville Itinerary

Known as the capital of country music, the thriving city of Nashville combines old-world southern charm with a progressive urban flair.

Do some cultural sightseeing at The Johnny Cash Museum & Cafe and Bicentennial Capitol Mall State Park. Head to Gallery 202 and David Arms Galleryfor some retail therapy. Change things up with these side-trips from Nashville: Burgess Falls State Park (in Sparta), Bowie Nature Park (in Fairview) and Franklin (Timberland Park & The Copper Fox Gallery). There's still lots to do: savor the flavors at Food & Drink, identify plant and animal life at Radnor Lake State Park, steep yourself in history at Belle Meade Plantation, and see the interesting displays at Country Music Hall of Fame and Museum.
