While most people travel to Nashville to
soak up the history of country music at
the city’s museums, others prefer
enjoying the tunes in person. The best
way to do that is to visit the many bars
along Broadway, Downtown Nashville’s
main thoroughfare. Lower Broadway
is nicknamed “Honky Tonk Highway”
because of the numerous establishments
that host live acts daily. What’s more,
there’s no cover charge, so you can bar
hop as you please!
