There will be two daily flights from Boston’s Logan International Airport, and one from Fort Lauderdale-Hollywood International Airport. The rollout of these new routes is part of JetBlue’s plan to expand its service in both Boston and southern Florida.

What’s Shaking in Nashville

Nashville is the capital of Tennessee, but it’s known throughout the world as Music City. It’s the epicenter for country music, with 180 recording studios and thousands of musicians performing throughout town.

While the live music, good times and great food are perhaps the city’s biggest draws, Nashville is also the home of a whole host of museums and attractions, including Elvis’ home, Graceland, and the Grand Ole Opry.

Downtown Nashville has a nearly endless supply of honky-tonks, dive bars and dance halls offering country music. The Country Music Hall of Fame, Grand Ole Opry and the Ryman Auditorium are also located downtown. They offer an insider’s view of Nashville’s musical and cultural history.

Consider a tour of RCA Studio B. You’ll see where some of country music’s most famous icons recorded their albums, including Elvis, Dolly Parton, Chet Atkins and Roy Orbison.

You can also check out the The Parthenon, replica of the ancient Parthenon in Athens, located in Centennial Park. While the exterior is quite eye-catching, it’s also home to a museum and an art gallery. Alan LeQuire’s sculpture, the Athena Parthenos, is located there.

If you’re into food trucks, Nashville has plenty to choose from. Foodie faves include Apollo Burgers, Music City Pie Company, A Little Italian and Bacon Nation. There’s a lot to do in Nashville, so it may take a few trips to get it all in.
