    How do you go to Graceland and not write a review? Don't ask me…read more It was a really cool experience walking through the mansion and its grounds just imagining Elvis and his life there. Everything is so well-maintained and in pristine condition. A true time capsule. Getting to see everything there as well as the Lisa Marie plane and the large warehouse displaying everything from his cars to outfits, Lisa Marie's baby toys, his army uniform and more was so fascinating. On the wall outside of the mansion visitors have written messages, their names and where they're from etc. We did as well. Maybe one day we'll visit again and try to find what we penned on the wall.

    Visited Graceland four times since 2014, and it keeps getting better…read more My 2026 visit really surprised me! The exterior and overall setup now feel a lot like a Disney-style theme park. The experience is much more polished, and the opening film about Elvis makes his legacy easy to appreciate even if we didn't grow up knowing much about him. There are also more exhibits now, and we could tell they've invested a lot into improving it. Only downside: a really mean staff member outside the ticket area who stopped us and questioned our ticket choice quite aggressively, insisting there was no such thing as a "basic" ticket. As the person who has visited three times before, I had to explain that I meant the most basic tier they offer and then finally she let me go. It felt rude and a bit disrespectful, especially since the other staff members were so nice and welcoming. Still a great experience overall, just wish the front-line service matched the rest.

    Strolling up to 406 Lucy Avenue--a modest, boarded-up shotgun house in South Memphis--hits you with…read morea mix of reverence and heartbreak. This humble home is where the Queen of Soul, Aretha Franklin, first drew breath on March25,1942 Despite being in a rough spot--windows boarded, weeds creeping, and parts collapsing--it still whispers history at every creak You can't go inside, but stepping onto the porch--or as close as allowed--fills you with awe. This is ground zero for gospel that would later shake the world. Aretha herself returned here in 2014 and recalled memories of her father preaching and her family gathering under a backyard tree with nostalgia and fondness The neighborhood, part of historic Soulsville, bears its own scars--decades of neglect and blight. But the house stands at the center of a hopeful revival. Local activists and preservation groups have fought zoning orders and demolition plans, and as recently as mid-2024, efforts to stabilize and restore the site gained traction--especially now that Anasa Troutman owns the property with the intent to honor its legacy in place

    Aretha Franklin's birthplace…read more If you're in Memphis, you should definitely stop by to see the childhood home of Aretha Franklin. You can't go inside but are able to get out and view the outside. It was a wonderful experience and honor to visit the Queen of Soul's birthplace. However, as a historic place the city should clean up the area and street.
