Mid-City Body Works

For a touch of art integrated into the beauty of nature, visit the Crystal Shrine Grotto. This man-made cave is located inside Memorial Park Cemetery and features the work of Mexican folk artist Dionicio Rodriquez. Ten scenes depict the life of Jesus Christ, but even non-Christians will appreciate the beautiful art and the peaceful ambiance of this grotto.

Take in the beauty of Memphis at Overton Park. Home to the zoo, Brooks Art Museum, an amphitheater, a golf course and the Memphis College of the Arts, this sprawling park has outdoor and indoor activities for the entire family. Walk along the trails and absorb nature, play a game of soccer or let the little ones run wild at the playground.

Listen to some of the best live blues and jazz music in Memphis at Wild Bill's, home to beer and blues. This juke joint doubles as a restaurant, so you can chow down on delicious food while enjoying live entertainment. Head out onto the dance floor or just sit at one of the long tables and chat with friends, new and old, at one of the hottest music venues on the nightlife scene.
