“Prepare to be changed. The national civil rights museum is situated inside the Lorraine motel. In 1968, Martin Luther King Jr. was assassinated on the balcony of this motel by James Earl Ray. The museum takes you through the inspiring and challenging journey of the civil rights movement and the significant part Martin Luther played in the struggle. It contains numerous photographs, exhibits, memorabilia, newspaper prints and three dimensional scenes of the revolutionary movement. You can’t miss this one.”

“The actual oldest restaurant in Memphis. It boasts one of the classic diner and breakfast that used to serve Elvis!”

“Where locals go after midnight for soul burgers and drinks. Beware of ghost. Place is haunted.”

“Another local favorite for BBQ. Can walk to but delivery or taking the trolley is easiest.”

“The Peabody hotel has been an institution to the locals of Memphis as it has stood the test of time and many generations have enjoyed the fruits of this historic building. The march of the mallards or ducks is the most quirky tradition that takes place here where a group of ducks walk in a crooked line from the elevator to the lobby fountain and simply put, this cannot be missed. The hotel’s sheer luminosity and beauty is in itself a marvel to look at.”
