8 destinations you must visit in 2018
Nashville, the US
Music City has long been popular with country music fans-it's home to iconic sites like the Country Music Hall of Fame and the Grand Ole Opry. But, Tennessee's capital is making a name for itself with its thriving art and food scenes as well.
Nashville is home to a variety of contemporary art galleries and is known for its beautiful street art, including the I Believe in Nashville mural in the 12 South neighborhood, and artist Kelsey Montague's WhatLiftsYou wings in the Gulch. In October 2018, Nashville will further solidify its presence in the art world by hosting Art Nashville, an international art fair a la Art Basel Miami and Expo Chicago.
Art and music aside, Nashville's emerging food scene is reason enough to visit in 2018. The city's most iconic dish, hot chicken, is becoming so popular, imitations are popping up on restaurant menus across the country.
