　　On Sunday, put on your 'smell goods' and head to services in South Memphis, where soul-music legend turned reverend Al Green presides over a powerful choir. Visitors are welcome; it's a fascinating cultural experience. Services may last several hours, so sit in the back if you're not sure you can stay the entire time.

Must-see attractions

　　If you only make one stop in Memphis, it should be here: the sublimely kitschy, gloriously bizarre home of the King of Rock and Roll. Though born in Mississippi, Elvis Presley was a true son of Memphis, raised in the Lauderdale Courts public-housing projects, inspired by blues clubs on Beale...

Crosstown Concourse

　　It's not your typical food hall – you won't find rows of kiosks – but there's an international array of casual eateries in the city's newest hot spot. Built in 1927 as a massive retail and distribution center for Sears, and then sitting vacant for two decades, Crosstown Concourse now...

Memphis Rock 'n' Soul Museum

　　This Smithsonian museum, next to FedEx Forum, examines how African American and white music mingled in the Mississippi Delta to create the modern rock and soul sound. ...

Blues Hall of Fame

　　Dedicated to Blues Hall of Fame inductees, this intimate and well-done space features a rotating art gallery on the lobby level and a small but well-curated line of bluesy exhibits downstairs. Highlights include the outlandish and flamboyant tour jackets (witness Muddy Waters' impossibly retro 1982 number) and sparkly performance gowns...

National Civil Rights Museum

　　Housed partly inside the Lorraine Motel, where Martin Luther King Jr was fatally shot on April 4, 1968, is the gut-wrenching National Civil Rights Museum. Its immersive and compelling exhibits chronicle the struggle for African American freedom and equality from the earliest days of slavery in America. Both Dr King’s...

　　This dusty storefront is ground zero for American rock and roll. Starting in the early 1950s, Sun's Sam Phillips recorded blues artists such as Howlin' Wolf, BB King and Ike Turner, followed by the rockabilly dynasty of Jerry Lee Lewis, Johnny Cash, Roy Orbison and, of course, the King himself...

Overton Park Shell

　　A historic band shell and the site of Elvis' first concert in 1954. Today the mod-looking white shell hosts free concerts in summer and fall. ...

Stax Museum of American Soul Music

　　Wanna get funky? Head directly to Soulsville, USA, where this 17,000-sq-ft museum sits on the site of the old Stax recording studio. This venerable spot was soul music's epicenter in the 1960s, when Otis Redding, Booker T and the MGs, and Wilson Pickett recorded here. 　　Dive into soul-music history with...

　　A small peninsula jutting into the Mississippi, Mud Island is downtown Memphis' best-loved green space. Walk across the bridge to the park, where you can jog and rent bikes. The tram to the island was closed at research time, and it's unclear when and indeed if it will reopen. ...

Memphis Music Hall of Fame

　　It was a long time coming, but Memphis finally has a shrine to its own. This small but well-done museum, the sister gallery to the Memphis Rock 'n' Soul Museum, has some fascinating personal artifacts from its native musical sons, from Elvis Presley to Big Star to Justin Timberlake. It...

Memphis Pyramid

　　Don't laugh, but the most striking building in Memphis, a 32-story pyramid completed in 1991, is now home to an enormous Bass Pro Shop. Even if you don't need fishing gear or hiking boots, pop in to see the artificial swamp and the aquariums, or test your skill at the...
