🎸 Nashville for Non-Drinkers: Travel Guide Part 1
I’m back in the Bay Area! I’ll slowly catch up on all the messages—thanks for your patience and love 😘 —————— ✨ —————— As someone who barely drinks 🚫🍷, I was worried that Nashville and I might not vibe. But turns out, Music City has so much to offer even if you don’t drink! From ancient Greek replicas to underground caves, vintage cars to music shrines—this city is both lively and peaceful, and totally worth the trip. Day 1 – Culture Day 🏛️ The Parthenon • Tickets: ~$10 per person • The first floor features a small gallery with paintings and historical info about the temple. The second floor is dominated by a 12-meter-tall statue of Athena. • Currently, there’s also an Alan LeQuire sculpture exhibition on the second floor. • Highly recommend spending some time in the park around the temple—perfect for photos, walks, or even joining the locals fishing! 🎣 🤠 Broadway & Surroundings • Perfect for those who love a lively atmosphere! Every bar offers amazing live music 🎶—even from the street, the energy is infectious. Some venues have great second-floor views too. • Besides bars, there are plenty of boutique shops—especially famous boot stores and custom hat shaping! 👒 • The legendary Hattie B’s Hot Chicken is here. Dine in if you have time; we opted for takeaway 😋 • If you have extra time, explore the nearby streets—you’ll find beautiful churches and the Frist Art Museum. Check their current exhibits before buying tickets! • The area is clean, architecture is unique, and the vibe is friendly. Plenty of great restaurants within walking distance. Perfect for a relaxed stroll! Day 2 – Vintage Machines & Nostalgia 🚗 Lane Motor Museum • Tickets: $12.50 | Closed Mondays • Guided tours are available but limited per time slot—miss one and you’ll have to wait. • So many cool cars! 🚙 A must for mechanical and industrial design lovers. I thought I’d be done in 30 minutes… ended up spending over an hour and still didn’t want to leave. • Don’t miss the interactive pin map near the entrance—mark your city on the wall! 📍 #NashvilleTravel #Nashville #Parthenon #USATravel
