Enjoy outdoor fun at Capitol Bicentennial Mall State Park, the 19-acre park that rests in the shadow of the State Capitol in downtown Nashville. You'll enjoy a day in the park filled with loads of recreational activities while soaking up Tennessee history. Check in with park rangers for an historical tour of the park.

All aboard! Come to the Tennessee Central Railway Museum to see the largest collection of Tennessee Central Railway artifacts, including passenger cars, cabooses, freight cars and locomotives. The coolest part of the museum visit is the opportunity to board a TCR train on a passenger excursion ride around scenic Tennessee.

What started out as a live radio show turned a stage into the legendary Grand Ole Opry in Nashville. The name may have changed to the Ryman Theatre but big time country music entertainment still appears there. Known the world over as the show that made country music famous, you can catch stars like Alan Jackson, Dolly Parton and Rascal Flats live on stage.
