Default Nashville Atlanta Recommendations

Between Atlanta and Nashville, you'll go through Chattanooga, TN.
Having grown up in the Midwest, I remember barn roofs painted with ads
saying, "See Rock City" and "Visit Ruby Falls". Now they have web
sites. These are attractions on Lookout Mountain in Chattanooga.
It's also an important Civil War site. You can't miss Lookout
Mountain; the interstate goes right by it.

Default Nashville Atlanta Recommendations

Chattanooga has an interesting acquarium (the seahorse exhibit is
especially nice). If you stop there, when I-24 branches off to
Nashville (left), take the lanes that say "downtown" (only a short
distance from the I-24/US 27 split. The acquarium is just a short
distance from US 27 and there are obvious signs and plenty of parking.
Near the acquarium there is a footbridge across the river; the north
bank of the river is nicely renovated into a park.

In Nashville, if you like museums, check out the Frist Museum (which
currently has an excellent traveling exhibit). Cheekwood Botantical
Gardens are nice too. On the other hand, if country music is your
thing, there's plenty of tourist lit telling about these places.
Coming into TN from Atlanta, stop at the TN Visitors' Center almost
immediately after crossing the state line.
