Nashville, nicknamed 'Music City' or 'Athens of the South', is the capital of Tennessee and the Davidson County seat. It is the city's association with the music industry that has earned it the name of Music City. The city is situated on the Cumberland River and houses a large number of universities and colleges. Publishing, health care, transportation and banking are important sectors in the city. The area has a humid, subtropical climate; summers are hot and humid and winters are mild to cool. The Nashville International Airport and the Interstate 65 are conveniently situated close to the Nashville luxury hotels with their comfortable amenities.
Nashville is well known as the "home of country music" and many popular record labels are housed here. Ever since the early 1960s, the city has been one of the largest music production centers in America. The industry is a major provider of jobs and an important contributor to the local economy. Tourism plays a large role, but health care is mainly what the economy is about with 250 health care firms located in the city. This sector provides billions of dollars of income to the local economy as well as more than 90,000 jobs. Automation, finance and insurance play a role as well as religious publishing. The local universities, such as the Vanderbilt University, are central to the cultural life in Nashville.
Local cuisine also contributes to the culture and visitors to the Nashville luxury hotels can feast on barbeque, hot chicken, hot fish and "meat and three", the latter being a rural staple dish of meat and three vegetables.
Centennial Park is a 132-acre urban park with a small artificial lake and guests can savor the outdoors while walking around in the park. You can stand in awe of the Parthenon in the Park, a full-scale reconstruction of the real thing.
The Country Music Hall of Fame is situated close to select Nashville luxury hotels and houses a museum that preserves the past and the subsequent development of country music. The Ryman Auditorium has been recorded on the National Register of Historic Places and seats 2,362 people at any one time. It is also a National Historic Landmark and visitors can attend live performances at this venue, with everything from rock, country and blues music to stand-up comedians. Football fans can watch a game at the L P Field, a venue usually used for sporting events but also a place for music concerts, festivals and public events such as meetings and parties.
The main draw card to Nashville will always be country music. The city hosts a number of festivals during the course of the year, often seeing the Nashville luxury hotels fully booked.
