Louisville, KY Travel Guide 2.0 🗺️

6️⃣ KFC Yum! Center 🏟️ Named after KFC and Yum! Brands, but it’s not a KFC-themed center — it’s a multi-purpose sports and events arena. 📸 Great for a quick photo op when there’s no event! Then head to nearby Waterfront Park for views of the bridges. 🌉 7️⃣ Louisville Slugger Museum & Factory ⚾ Louisville Slugger is to baseball what Double Happiness is to ping pong in China — every American knows this iconic bat brand! 🕘 Hours: Mon–Sat: 9AM–5PM | Sun: 10AM–4PM 🎟️ Tickets: $22 (no student discount) 🅿️ Parking: Street parking ~$2.5/hr (cheaper than public lots) 🛍️ Pro tip: The gift shop and original timber warehouse are FREE to enter! Lots of affordable, unique baseball souvenirs. 8️⃣ Kentucky Science Center 🔬🧪 The prism-like entrance is eye-catching! Great for kids — hands-on science games + cool 3D movies. 🕘 Open daily 9AM–5PM 🎟️ Exhibit + 3D movie: $28 | 🎥 Movie options vary — book online! 9️⃣ Cathedral of the Assumption ⛪ A photogenic spot — especially in spring when flowers bloom around it! ⚠️ Note: Partial renovation during our visit, but still open. Avoid Sundays due to worship services. 🔟 21c Museum Hotel 🎨🏨 A gallery-themed hotel — the gold David statue is iconic! Free art exhibits open to the public. 1️⃣1️⃣ Thomas Edison House 💡 The house Edison rented while working at a telegraph office (built in the 1850s). Mostly replicas inside, but historically interesting! 🎟️ Tickets: $5 general | $3 students 🅿️ Free parking #TravelUSA #LouisvilleKY #Kentucky #USATrip #ExploreAmerica 🚗📸🇺🇸
