Sights & Attractions in Nashville

Nashville Sights

Downtown Nashville has much to offer in the way of history, music, entertainment, dining, and specialty shopping. The Cumberland River horizontally bisects Nashville's central city. Numbered avenues, running north-south, are west of and parallel to the river; numbered streets are east of the river and parallel to it.

To get a more complete feeling for the city, you'll want to explore the area beyond downtown, too. Among the offerings are historic plantations, a variety of museums covering everything from toys to science, and some great places for kids, including the Nashville Zoo—not to mention the Grand Ole Opry.
