Country Music Hall of Fame & Museum
Downtown & the Gulch
This monumental museum, reflecting the near-biblical importance of country music to Nashville's soul, is a must-see whether you're a country music fan or…
Lower Broadway is downtown's country heart, thumping with shops, restaurants and honky-tonks. South of Lower Broadway is SoBro, revitalized by the Music City Center and the Country Music Hall of Fame. Printers Alley, just west of 2nd Ave N, is a narrow cobblestoned lane known for its nightlife. Along the Cumberland River, Riverfront Park and, across the pedestrian bridge, Cumberland Park are landscaped promenades, home to a greenway, a dog park and a new amphitheater. The Gulch, once industrial, has gone glossy with hip restaurants and upscale shops, while microbreweries cluster in the Brewery District.
