The Parthenon: When you travel to Nashville, this is absolutely a site that you have to visit. The Parthenon features one of the largest sets of bronze doors that can be found anywhere; each set of doors - one on the front and one on the back - weighs in at seven and a half tons. The Athena Parthenos holds another record as being one of the largest indoor sculptures in the world. It also holds one other record: the only complete and life-size replica of the Parthenon in the entire world. Bring your camera with you visit this site, as it is truly breathtaking.

Gaylord Opryland: One of the largest resorts in the world should definitely be on your list of places to see. The Gaylord Opryland is literally awe-inspiring. Aside from offering hundreds upon hundreds of different and lavish hotel rooms, this place doubles as the largest convention center in the state. An indoor mall offers plenty of shopping and even an auto dealership. The resort is split into three areas, the Cascades, and the Delta and the Conservatory, each which cover several acres per area. Don't miss the large lake in the cascades, where you can even go on boat rides. Water jets spout streams hundreds of feet into the air in the Cascades, and the Conservatory offers an indoor botanical garden.

Country Music Hall of Fame and Museum: Don't miss this place if you end up in Cornville. The most notable site is Elvis' solid gold Cadillac, but you can also read original, hand written lyrics penned by music's greatest stars, look at thousands of different stage outfits, and even see some of the most famous rock and roll instruments ever to be played on by some of the most famous rockers in the world. Make sure you set aside several hours so you can see everything that this place has to offer.

Nash Trash Tours: Perhaps the best way to really see this city is by drinking alcohol legally in this decorative bus as you are taken around and shown all the sites and explained their rich history. It's like seeing the whole city by just taking one bus ride. And yes, it's legal to drink on the bus and they serve alcohol. If you travel to Nashville, don't miss this tour, it's the one absolute thing that you must do to really see everything.

Bicentennial Mall State Park: This park was originally constructed to celebrate the state's two hundred years of union membership. This park is truly exceptional and features an amphitheater, botanical garden and visitor center. There are also thirty one fountains scattered throughout the park, one for every major river in the state. Make sure that you check out the large granite timeline of the state's history and don't miss the two hundred foot granite map of the state either. The best part: admission is free.
