Memphis Attractions
as the birthplace of the blues. Did you know that Elvis's home, Graceland, is the second most visited house in the country - behind the White House in Washington, D.C.? But Graceland is only one of the many exciting sites and attractions that you will want to see during your visit to Memphis.
Our Memphis in May Festival attracts people from around the world to compete in the International BBQ cooking contest. This festival draws thousands to the banks of the Mississippi for live concerts and the Sunset Symphony. We're also home of the Peabody - queen of Southern hotels, Mud Island - the final resting place of the Memphis Belle and the National Civil Rights Museum, which is the only one of its kind in the world.
