    i suppose it depends what you are into really, the Church of God in Christ is located in Memphis, Martin Luther King gave his 'I have been to the mountaintop' speech the night before he was assassinated.

    There are also quite a few museums including the Pink Palace museum which is a huge science museum- it is supposed to be really good. Mid town has quite a few neighbourhoods worth seeing, some of them house quite a lot of art galleries and are really chilled out, personally i would recommend the Edge is which is at the of Downtown close to Madison Av, Sun Studios is also located in the Edge

    Other than that a nice walk along the Mississippi never hurt anyone :D

    Hope that helps

    I'm going to Memphis for 2 days in November so I've been doing a lot of research on this lately :D

    We're taking a tour called Mojo Music Tour which has gotten really good reviews on TripAdvisor. It shows you all the major sites and your tour guide plays the guitar and sings!

    We're also going to check out the marching ducks at the Peabody hotel and take a boat rip on the Mississippi. At night we'll probably hang out arounfd Beale Street and check out a Blues cafe.
