About Nashville

Affectionately known as “Music City,” Nashville has a connection with the music industry that remains as strong as ever. Nashville is best known for its music history, and visitors would be loathe to miss such sights as the Country Music Hall of Fame, the Nashville Nights Honky Tonk Heaven and the Ryman Auditorium.

In addition to its music ties, Nashville currently enjoys major economic, educational and cultural expansion which has boosted local tourism as well as jobs. Nashville is just as famous for attractions like the Tennessee State Museum with its numerous Civil War artifacts, the Parthenon (a replica of the Greek structure) and the Sommet Center, a major complex that holds both professional sporting events and famous musicians. Education also plays an important part in Nashville, with such top-notch schools as Vanderbilt University and Tennessee State University.

With natural beauty and urban attractions, Nashville is far more than just a music town. It’s a city with style where you can combine history and shopping, tourism and culture.
