📸 Snapshots of Memphis, Tennessee 🎵
Fun fact: The ancient Egyptian capital by the Nile was also called Memphis 🌍. And here in the U.S., Memphis lies along the Mississippi River—known as America’s “Mother River” 💙. As Tennessee’s second-largest city, it’s like a smaller version of Nashville 🎸 and has one of the highest populations of African Americans in the country. 🎶 Home of the Blues on Beale Street – where the Blues were born! 🌉 Spanning the mighty Mississippi – the 4th longest river in the world – the Memphis Bridge connects Tennessee and Arkansas, with Mississippi lying further downstream. 🏀 FedEx Forum – home court of the Memphis Grizzlies 🐻 🏛️ The iconic Bass Pro Shop Pyramid – a must-see inside and out! 🍖 Tennessee-Style BBQ Ribs – rubbed with special spices, then slow-smoked for hours over fruitwood until fall-off-the-bone tender with deep, rich flavor. 🔥 Must try: Central BBQ! #Memphis #USA #TravelUSA #AmericanSouth #Blues #BBQ #MississippiRiver #MemphisGrizzlies
