Tennessee Walking Horse Museum
The Tennessee walking horse, named for its unusual high-stepping walking gait, is considered the world's premier breed of show horse, and it is here in the rolling hills of middle Tennessee that most of these horses are bred. Using interactive videos, hands-on exhibits, and other displays, this museum presents the history of the Tennessee walking horse. Though the exhibits here will appeal primarily to equine enthusiasts, there is also much for the casual visitor to learn and enjoy. The annual Tennessee Walking-Horse National Celebration, held each August here in Shelbyville, is one of middle Tennessee's most important annual events. Tennessee walkers can also be seen going through their paces at various other annual shows in the Nashville area.

Country Music Hall of Fame and Museum
If you're a fan of country music, this is the museum in Nashville. Even if you aren't, almost anyone with an appreciation for American popular music will thrill to such sights as Bob Dylan's barely legible inscription scrawled across a lyric sheet; Emmylou Harris' petite, bejeweled cowboy boots; and Elvis' gold-leafed Cadillac (a gift from Priscilla). Savvy multimedia exhibits let visitors explore displays on bluegrass, cowboy music (a la Roy Rogers), country swing, rockabilly, Cajun, honky-tonk, and contemporary country music through personalized CD listening posts, interactive jukeboxes, and computer stations. The Grand Ole Opry gets its due with a mind-boggling array of memorabilia, enhanced by vintage Opry recordings. And, as if all of this wasn't more than a visitor could stand, the museum also showcases such down-home objects d'art as Naomi Judd's rusted wringer-and-tub-style washing machine, and the kitschy cornfield from TV's Hee Haw -- complete with Junior Samples' denim overalls and Lulu Roman's plus-size gingham dress.Even if you've visited the museum before, there's always a reason to return for special exhibitions and events. Looking ahead, "Night Train to Nashville: Music City Rhythm & Blues 1945-1970" will examine the connections between country music and rhythm-and-blues with archival video footage and previously unpublished photographs. The exhibition will open in March 2004 and run through December 2005. Meanwhile, lucky visitors at any time of year might catch a glimpse of a country great: Nashville resident Vince Gill is said to be a regular here, and legends such as Merle Haggard have been known to drop by for impromptu concerts.If you want to arrange a visit to the old RCA recording studio, where Elvis laid down a few hits, you'll need to sign up here at the Hall of Fame. The studio itself is located in Music Row area of Nashville. Allow 2-3 hours.
