If your into country music consider the Grand Old Opry which is playing downtown at the historical Ryman Auditorium until about March.

If your into symphony music, Nashville has a brand new state of the art symphony hall. One of the remarkable features of this new hall is that the hall has electronically removable seats that store itself into the basement of the facility, exposing a full size elegant dance hall floor. It's awesome sight to see.

The Country Music Hall of Fame and Museum is another good stop.

The Grand Ole Opry Museum. (Sorry no website)

This attraction is often missed by most visitors to Nashville. Located behind Opry mills mall is the Opryhouse. If you walk to the right of the Opryhouse, there is a courtyard with the Acuff theater located to the rear of the courtyard. Next to the Acuff theater is the Grand Ole Opry Museum. Admission price: Free (cant beat that price). Hours of operation Mon.-Sat. 10am-5pm. Sunday 12pm-5pm.



One last attraction to see is the Broadway and 2nd street areas of downtown Nashville. That's were lots of the bars and gift shops are located. The entertainment district if you will.



For other attractions visit the Nashville Visitors Bureau:

I hope you enjoy your stay in Nashville.My friend and I are turning 25 and are planning a weekend getaway to Nashville, any ideas??
The Gaylord Opryland hotel is a nice place to visit, even if you can't afford to stay there. It is really pretty, especially at Christmas- ice sculptures etc.

For clubs, go to 2nd Ave.- Wild Horse Saloon, other touristy places to hang out. And, eat at the Crab House-- delicious seafood.

Another touristy thing to do is ride the General Jackson riverboat. Maybe a little cold now....

Or go to the Parthenon, or the Frist Museum
