Nashville

Remember on my last trip to Tennessee I met my American aunty and her 2 kids?

Well, I went to visit them in Nashville.

First we went to the Frist Center for Visual Arts

Cumberland River

it leads to the Mississipi River

the State House

Chet Atkins

at&t building a.k.a batman building

the Ryman Auditorium

Patsy Cline impersonator

Kitty Wells exhibit

have you heard of her?

I haven't either.

this wall was really cool.

covered with posters of the musicians.

blue suede shoes

Elvis Presley's solid gold cadillac

and his gold piano

Johnny Cash, the man in black

records

Dolly Parton magazine covers

where they hung up all the plaques

this is the replica of the Parthenon

pretty cool, right?

this is inside.

statue of Athena, goddess of wisdom

the snake represents the people,

she's protecting them with the shield.

this is a house in Franklin, Tennessee. the family that stayed there offered their house to be used like a hospital during the Civil War. there was a huge battle that took place there and about 600 confederate soldiers were looked after in that house.

we got to go inside on a tour, no photography allowed.

they even gave some of their land to be used as a cemetery for the soldiers.

last picture of the day (:
