Country music's home is based in the heart of Nashville. But even if you are not a country lover, there's still plenty to do. Home to the Grand Ole Opry and Country Music Hall of Fame and Museum, Nashville is more than just music. Museums, sporting events, history - it's all here. Whether touring the country music sites or enjoying the laid-back charm of the delightful state capital, visitors to Nashville are in for a "down-home good ole time".
