About the Book

While it's increasingly rare to find a native son or daughter in Nashville, Tennessee, visitors and new residents are hungry for all the rich experiences Music City has to offer. And with 100 Things to Do in Nashville Before You Die as your guide, you'll find all the satisfying Nashville treasures you might expect along with some new places even locals might not have discovered. Comb through carefully selected itineraries to make the most of the Grand Ole Opry, the Athenian Parthenon, or even a tucked-away spot in the ornate Hermitage Hotel that's earned a spot in the Restrooms Hall of Fame. No visit is complete without the full musical experience like honky tonks on Lower Broadway, the Bluebird Cafe's songwriters' show, or The Time Jumpers at 3rd & Lindsley. The culinary scene in Nashville is unparalleled, and you'll find recommendations for barbecue at Peg Leg Porker's where the "Limpin' Ain't Easy"; milkshakes at Elliston Place Soda Shop; breezy rooftop hotel bars with the best city panoramas; and special occasion venues like the Standard. Whether you're looking for outdoor activities or a Tennessee shopping spree, travel writer Tom Adkinson, who grew up in the city, will help you find just the place. His love of bragging on his city shines through in this atypical guide full of unexpected but unmissable things to do in Nashville.
