The city of Nashville and what is considered to be “music country” is located in the north central region of Tennessee, nestled into the Cumberland River. It has a sweet skyline and the downtown area is easy to get around on foot. If you travel down Broadway towards the river, you’ll hear live country music pouring out of every bar and saloon.
Contrary to belief, even if you’re not a country fan, Nashville is still a fun city. Trust me, I have a strong dislike for the genre myself, so I wouldn’t steer you wrong. There are a ton of great restaurants and bars, museums, and things to see.
I was just there for a quick weekend and had a blast. The leaves were still turning and it was really pleasant to sit outside. The Frist Museum had an exhibit on Kandinsky, and that was awesome. The Penguins played the Predators and won in a shut out. Not to mention, there were a number of bars that needed to be visited.
That being said, it was definitely worth the 16 hour round trip in the car. But then again, you can’t really put a price on exploring a new city, drinking outside, and catching up with good friends.

What a nice experience. I really like the photos provided, they make the reader feel part of the story 🙂
thank you so much!
I want that skirt!
unfortunately it’s really old! I got it in 8th grade and held onto because I liked it so much. So that makes it Gap circa early 2000s.
The Kandinsky show sounds cool. Too bad you’re not into country. A lot of the new stuff sucks, but the older stars were great. You might give Patsy Cline a try some time. And if you like her, check out some early George Jones.
I think I was turned off to it while I lived in Texas. I’m sure you’re right though. The newer stuff leaves an after taste. I don’t mind blue grass though. I’m not sure if that’s considered country.
I’ll be there in two weeks! Wow this has gotten me excited! 🙂
oh how fun! it’s a great city.
I must be nice to be young and photogenic. You look like you had a blast; Good for you! .)

i so want to go to nashville! bit of a trek from Ireland but maybe this summer!
oh man, I want to go to Ireland! you’re lucky!
Well I’m feeling lucky this week it’s so beautiful out 🙂 but usually it’s cold and wet ha
I’ve heard that! When is the best time of year to visit Ireland?
Best weather is usually March for some reason or September is usually lovely. June-October is probably the best 🙂 but we aren’t this green without having our share of rain!! 😂
I’m in the middle of planning a trip– and your advice really helps! thank you so much!
Well ask away! It’s small enough.. Nicest places for visitors are Kerry, west cork 🙂
