Nashville, Tennessee is a hotspot for nightlife and live entertainment and is one of the liveliest cities in the Southern United States. When you think of Nashville, you might think of country music and little else. While we are talking
about the country music capital of the world, there is so much more to do in Nashville than catch a live show at a country bar or visit the Grand Ol’ Opry (although both can be extremely fun). Conveniently located within a short driving or flying distance from many of America’s major cities, Nashville is an underrated option for a fun weekend getaway. Whether you run your own business or do medical transcription for Provider’s Choice Scribe Services, a weekend vacation is necessary to avoid workplace burnout and preserve your mental health.
Nashville is the perfect spot for a weekend getaway, and here are some attractions that prove it.
Visit the Parthenon
While a short weekend might not be enough time to travel to Greece, you can pretend it is by stopping by the Parthenon replica in Nashville, aka the “Athens of the South.” Originally built for use at the Tennessee Centennial Exhibition in 1897, the Parthenon has become a popular Nashville attraction that is home to an art museum and many Greek plays.
Walk Around Broadway
During the day, Broadway is the perfect place to stroll, shop, and dine. Considered to be the “heart of Nashville,” spending a day on Broadway will give you an idea of just how lively and energetic the city is. At night, Broadway is known for its wild nightlife scene, where you can bar hop while enjoying countless live music performances.
Have Lunch at the Bluebird Cafe
Known for its live performances which have led to the discovery of nationally known artists like Taylor Swift, Nashville’s famous Bluebird Cafe is a quiet lunch spot that comes to life during its evening open mic nights or scheduled live performances. Many staff members are talented musicians hoping to play at the restaurant in order to get discovered; you never know what soon-to-be celebrities will be serving your food!
Escape to the Mountains
If the hustle and bustle of Nashville gets old, spend an afternoon in the Great Smokey Mountains National Park. Located just a short drive outside of the city, this is the perfect place to spend a few hours relaxing in nature and enjoying Tennessee’s beautiful scenery.
With a little bit of something for everybody, Nashville is the perfect destination for anyone wanting to escape from the monotony of their everyday lives for a short vacation. These are just 4 of the endless activities that Nashville has to offer, so don’t procrastinate booking your trip today.
