This is where we went on our first date. It is a full-size replica of the Parthenon in Greece with a beautiful surrounding park. There will be a family-friendly concert series in the park that has live music, drinks, food, local vendors, and an area for kids that goes from May 23 - 25 (link below).
This is a great nearby place to escape the city and get some trail time.
You have to try Nashville Hot Chicken while in town! This is the downtown location, and there are three others across the city + one inside of BNA.
If you've never been to Nashville and want to be a tourist, Broadway is the place to start. The street is lined with bars, restaurants, honky tonks, gift shops, etc. If you hate crowds, do not go here.
Great coffee shop on the west side.
Coffee shop right next to the Element Hotel.
Good coffee downtown.
