Itta Bena is an upscale Italian restaurant located above B.B. King’s on Beale. Once you walk up the hidden staircase and step into the posh piano lounge, you'd never know you were above one of the most popular clubs on Beale.

Sun Studio is my favorite musical museum in Memphis. The tour guides are knowledgeable, and most are musicians themselves. Sun Studios is where Elvis was discovered and where other musical legends have recorded (and continue to record).

Slaven Haven is the name of the house-turned-museum that was once a stop on the Underground Railroad. The fantastic tour guides tell a narrative of slavery that starts on the coasts of West Africa and includes a look at the hidden room where escaping slaves stayed before moving on.

Overton Park is a nice green space in midtown with a dog park and wide walking/biking trails. If you wander off the larger paved paths, you’ll find yourself in the Old Forest, the “only old-growth forest in the Southeast to be located in an urban environment.”

- Beale Street is the most touristy spot in Memphis (other than Graceland), but some of the blues clubs are worth visiting. B.B. King’s Blues Club is a lively restaurant with live bands and a dancefloor. Rum Boogie Café is another favorite. I recommend grabbing a drink to-go and walking along the street to soak in the music and atmosphere.
