Nashville, TN is the capital of the state of Tennessee and its second largest city (metro area included, about 1.5 million people), behind Memphis. It was founded in 1779, as Fort Nashborogh, by James Robertson and named for General Francis Nash of Revolutionary War fame. It was officially chartered as a city in 1806 and named capital of Tennessee in 1843.
The city lies in Cumberland River valley, beside that same river. The climate makes for hot, humid summers, relatively mild winters, and pleasant spring and summers. As a major US city (top 25 population-wise) all major and minor restaurant chains, hotels, and other services are widely available.
Nashville is known as the home of Country Music, so it's not a surprise that The Grand Ole Opry and the Country Music Hall of Fame are two of the city's most popular attractions.
Other major attractions include; The General Jackson Showboat, the Parthenon in Centennial Park, and President Andrew Jackson’s home, The Hermitage.
The city is also home to several professional sports franchises including the Tennessee Titans of the NFL, and the Nashville Predators of the NHL.
