7 Wonders Of The World That Are Actually Right Here In Nashville
We all know that Nashville is a beautiful place to live AND visit (we’re one of the top tourist destination spots in the US), but why? Why are we so popular, what is there to visit that you’ll remember forever because it’s beautiful and historic and stunning?
Well. We’re so glad you asked.
Because we have seven (secret) wonders of the world right here in Music City. A mix of natural and man-made beauty, these places are a must for your next Saturday out.


The Ryman is known as the Mother Church of country music, and was first opened in 1892. It has been used as the Grand Ole Opry and one of the most popular concert venues in the entire country. It's also known for having some of the best acoustics in the nation. Pretty neat, hey?


This gorgeous and historic plantation is a top spot for weddings - because it's absolutely beautiful. It was first built in 1807 and has since stood as a testament to Antebellum Tennessee.


The John Seigenthaler Pedestrian Bridge is one of the most iconic sites in downtown Nashville. It's a top running spot, and hey - can you imagine the romance of a date over the Cumberland?


Shelby Bottoms boasts hiking trails for DAYS, connecting to Two Rivers in the north. It's the kind of place where you run through the natural beauty of Music City, completely in awe of the our Cumberland River and open field combination.


A full-scale replica of the Parthenon in Greece, the Parthenon was built in 1897 sits front and center in Centennial Park. There is also a 42-foot statue of the goddess Athena that you can visit with a ticket inside.

Located on the banks of the Cumberland River, straight across the water from downtown, the Ghost Ballet is an art sculpture that is meant to embody the spirit of Nashville. At 100 feet high and 100 feet wide, this is one stunning piece of art.


Technically located in the Brentwood suburb of Nashville, we're going to count in Radnor just because it's absolutely stunning. A 1200 acre piece of land that fully embodies the beauty of Nashville's countryside, this is one spot you simply can't skip out on.
We’ll forever be in love with Nashville. These historic neighborhoods are also pretty wonderful, so you’ll have to check ’em out.
