Home of barbecued ribs and blues music, Memphis has a special charm that draws foodies and music lovers alike. Beale Street is the place to be if you want to hear some live music, but the city is also full of historical music landmarks, including Elvis Presley’s Graceland mansion and the Blues Hall of Fame.

No matter what you choose to have for Thanksgiving dinner, you can't leave the city without indulging in its famous barbecue at least once. After a satisfying meal, head outside to stroll alongside the Mississippi River and enjoy the crisp autumn air.
