Tennessee is a land of surprises. The cities are alive with music – after all, this is where you’ll find the home of the blues, the birthplace of rock ’n’ roll, and the country music capital of the world!

Memphis in the west and Nashville in the central part of the state offer numerous opportunities to enjoy hours of music and immerse yourself in the history of your favourite stars. Inbetween the two you can enjoy some fascinating national parks, like the Cherokee National Forest, the Great Smoky Mountain National Park and Shiloh National Military Park. The emphasis may be on music, but there are surprises around every corner in Tennessee.
