Moss-Wright Park

Reviewed By Michele081957

I live within 15-min. of Moss-Wright Park. Since retiring, and only working part-time now, a friend and I meet at this park twice a week, Tues/Fri, to walk 4 miles. We have walked in 20-something degree weather and 98 degree weather. The staff at the main office and gift shop are super friendly. They dress up like Pioneers and do tours of Mansker Station. Folks can bring their dogs for walking, in a different area than the walking trails. There is also a dog park for folks that don't necessarily want to walk, but want to give their pets a treat. Bikers can ride safely. There's a separate playground for children where parents can bring their kiddos to have some fun and exercise, to prepare them for nap time. And there are always security cops around, with cameras to avoid vandalism. Can't say enough good about Moss-Wright Park. Love... Love.. Love... this place.

Not just another moonshine place. Come sample the best selection of Whiskey, Moonshine, Cream Liqueurs, and other spirits inspired by our roots in the Smoky Mountains.

Awesome place with free tasting! We did a tasting with Jackson. He made the experience so fun! He made delicious combinations of the different moonshines. Jackson definitely made this a one of a kind tasting. Would come back just for him !

Diskin Cider

Diskin Cider is proud to be Nashville and Middle Tennessee’s first commercial craft cidery, bringing true craft cider to Tennessee and the South. Bridging the gap between wine and beer, Diskin Cider’s fresh, flavorful, small-batch ciders break the mold of overly sweet cider with the natural flavor of fresh pressed apples. Diskin not only provides a variety of cider options, but local beers and homemade cocktails as well an an elevated food menu including Sunday brunch.

I have been to Diskin multiple times after stumbling upon it a couple of years ago. Great cider, great service and staff. I went to the drag brunch this past weekend and it was AMAZING. The show was fabulous. Also Diskin was so thoughtful in the set up and execution of this event. Diskin is definitely a must go if you are looking for a great atmosphere and great cider.

Visiting Nashville? Live in Nashville? This is the spot to go for some great moonshine cocktails, great local beer and great atmosphere to hang out and watch the game or listen to live music. I frequent here and always love to bring friends and family when they come to visit. We did the moonshine tasting and Jen was fantastic, great attitude, friendly and knowledgeable.

Centennial Park

This downtown park has jogging paths, grassy spots for picnics and a small lake for paddle boating.

Reviewed By 529todda

this review specific to Parthenon replica: entertaining enough for adults and wondrous for children/kids. If your kid/s likes Percy Jackson they will be overjoyed to find some movie props (from the book adaptation) along with an impressive permanent exhibition inside. Clean bathrooms; good gift shop. Side note: the replica statues were created by a female artist--empowering visit for young girls.

The District

This downtown area is the heart of Nashville's nightlife and is the home to countless bars and clubs.

Reviewed By joannesI3491IZ - Whitesboro, United States

Due to Covid-19 most everyone was masked and practiced social distancing as much as one can in a huge draw tourist place. I loved this as compared to Beale Street in Memphis. More country music, less soul. All interactions with locals were friendly. Lots of young wannabes around.If we were young again and back in our drinking days this would have been even better.

Edwin and Percy Warner Parks

A 2681 acre park 7 miles southwest of downtown Nashville.

Reviewed By Duracraft

This is an incredibly beautiful park. Be warned, though, that Google Maps will not take you to the trail head. We had to circle around awhile to find that. It's also wise to take a picture of the park map as the trails themselves are not well marked (usually with just a color that sometimes changed mid-trail). The park itself is massive and beautiful. Even though we went during Spring Break, we encountered few people. We saw several wildlife, including wild turkeys. You can choose the length of the trail that you want to take. It was a beautiful way to spend a morning.

It includes a “Tennessee Time Tunnel” chronicling the state’s rich history and leading visitors though the Museum’s permanent collection, a hands-on children’s gallery, six rotating galleries, a state-of-the art digital learning center and a two-story Grand Hall. Exhibitions include significant artifacts related to the state’s history, along with displays of art, furniture, textiles, and photographs produced by Tennesseans. The Museum's Civil War holdings of uniforms, battle flags and weapons are among the finest in the nation.There is no admission charge for visitors. Hours are subject to change. Please check our website at tnmuseum.org for the most up to date information on parking, exhibitions and events.

The museum itself is located on Rosa L Parks at the intersection with Jefferson and very close to the Bicentennial Park and the Farmer's Market. It is filled with an astonishing collection of art, crafts, furniture, artifacts, and tools that resent the history of Tennessee very nicely. The collection starts with items from prehistory, through colonial times, the Civil War, Victorian era and up to modern times. It is just a Disneyland for lovers of art, history and culture. The admission to the entire museum is free as is the parking in the lot associated with the museum. Strikingly beautiful building. If the lot is full, you can get two hours of parking free along either 6th or 7th street. This was a most enjoyable experience for us all.

Bicentennial Capitol Mall State Park

This 19 acre park in the heart of Nashville serves as a monument to the bicentennial celebration of the State of Tennessee. This park offers plenty of opportunities to learn about the long history of Tennessee while having a great experience in a beautiful green space. More information on this park and many more can be found at the TN State Parks website.

Reviewed By RNfromJMU - Grand Haven, United States

Great place to stroll with the family. Large park allowed social distancing and included multiple historical markers teaching quite a bit about Tennessee history and its impact on the rest of the nation. Park is well positioned to serve many needs and included families walking, joggers, and people with pets. Proximity to the Farmers' Market makes it a good spot for picnic lunch especially given the scenery. If we lived in the area, this would probably be a regular stop for us.

Opportunities to learn about the biodiversity here are available at the visitor’s center, the aviary complex, and through the many Ranger led programs. More information on this park and many more can be found at the TN State Parks website.

This is a great place to walk, however, parking is a REAL issue since everyone loves it there. There are several trails on both sides of the street. Whatever your level of fitness is, there is a trail for you.
