Nashville TN | OMG… I never wanted to leave 😭

Spent three days in Nashville last week – such a perfect spot for a short trip! 🎶 📍 Tennessee State Museum Free state museum right in downtown! 🏛️ You can park near the Farmers Market and explore in about an hour. Afterward, check out the market for some local snacks 🥨. 📍 The Parthenon A full-scale replica of the Parthenon! The cover photo was taken here 📸. It’s a small spot – you can walk around in 10 mins. No need to pay to go inside (just a basic gold statue 😌). Great place to stop by especially since it’s super close to the amazing Uzbek food spot I’ll mention later. Plenty of parking too! 📍 Country Music Hall of Fame and Museum You can’t visit Music City without a dose of country vibes! 🎸 Park at Music City Center one block away. Student discount available 🎟️. Start on the 3rd floor – the wall of gold records is mind-blowing 💿, and they even have several of Taylor Swift’s tour dresses 🤩! Grabbed a souvenir magnet from the gift shop 🧲 – felt like a star lol! 📍 Broadway Also in downtown – easy walk from the Country Music Hall. Best at night! 🌃 The whole street is packed with live-music bars 🍻, and everywhere you look there are cool people in cowboy boots 👢🔥. 📍 Mammoth Cave National Park About an hour’s drive from Nashville. Wasn’t expecting much but ended up blown away 😮! Definitely worth a day trip – the cave tours are incredible 🦇⛰️. 🍽️ Food Highlights: Uzbegim Halal Restaurant (near the Parthenon): Uzbek food – basically like Xinjiang cuisine! Their baked buns and kebabs are SO good 🤤 Hattie B’s Hot Chicken: Original location on Broadway! We got half-chicken + wings with Hot spice level – too busy eating to take pics 😋 Also tried Beijing Hotpot (newly opened, a bit far from downtown): Golden broth and pickled cabbage base were tasty 🍲, other items were just okay. #Nashville #MusicCity #NashvilleFood #TravelGram ✈️
