Memphis is just a short drive from most cities in Kentucky.  You can be there in anywhere from 1-6 hours time from the Bluegrass State.    

Take it from this Kentucky girl living in Memphis, these are the Top Five places you must experience! 

1. Graceland- This one is a given. Graceland is such an experience and definitely plan a whole day (or half) for the full Graceland tour!

2. Civil Rights Museum- This Memphis tourist attraction is a must-see!  Again, plan a few hours for this historical museum, located partially inside the famous Lorraine Motel, where Dr. Martin Luther King, Jr. was assasinated

3. Peabody Hotel- this hotel is a Memphis landmark.  Go during the duck march and see the ducks switch shifts at the duck fountain!

4. Central BBQ- this is my personal Memphis BBQ favorite.  A lot of people will tell you to go to Rendezvous, and while it's a great experience, Central BBQ (with three locations in the Memphis metro area!) gets my vote for the tastiest pig.  

5) Gus's Fried Chicken- get yourself some authentic southern cooking at Gus's Fried Chicken.  

Hope to see y'all in Memphis soon!
