Recently Nashville moved to be a regional center of culture and commerce rather then to be only a music city. I made a trip of 4 days in the month of September 2007 of Nashville with my best friend only Kristina. We departure there by fight.We landed at the Nashville International Airport which was only five miles away from downtown. Then we went to our hotel. It was among the cheap hotels in Nashville.

Some of them are Country Music Hall of Fame and Museum, Music Valley Wax Museum and Musica, Grand Ole Opry, Ryman Auditorium Bluebird Café, Nashville Symphony, Frist Center for the Visual Arts Tennessee Performing Arts Center, Cheekwood Botanical Garden and Museum of Art and Hatch Show Print. But we went to see only Grand Ole Opry in the second day. It was the oldest radio program in the United States and broadcasting on WSM. They broadcast their programs on WSM on every Friday and Saturday night as well as Tuesdays from March through December. Both of us also enjoyed the music, art performance, and live dance performance.

By taking the same flight from the Nashville International Airport, we came back to our homes.
