A City That Hits All the Right Notes
There’s a reason Nashville is called Music City, but its rhythm goes far beyond the stage. Step inside the Country Music Hall of Fame or legendary Studio B, where the walls still hum with the voices of icons. Catch a show at the Grand Ole Opry or the Ryman Auditorium—venues that are part performance, part pilgrimage. Beyond the music, Nashville hits high notes in the culinary world, from hot chicken and biscuits to elevated Southern fare crafted by James Beard–honored chefs. Whether you’re singing along at a honky-tonk or exploring local art in 12South, your Envoyage advisor will help you tune into the very best of this dynamic Southern city.
