Seldom are vacation spots built for both elders and kids. It is more likely that the vacation spot either tends to cater to kids or to adults alone; never to both. Some may go to the extent of providing options but such options have rarely satisfied the intended audience. All in all, either the kids end up being dragged along to places of no interest to them or the adults end up spending their vacation traversing from one kiddy vacation spot to another. Boredom indeed! Memphis, Tennessee, however, is not such a place. In Memphis, there really is plenty to do for both the adults and the children so that both groups will be happy. Whether the family is into rides and parks or prefers to take their fun outdoors for things like hiking, biking and other activities, there is sure to be plenty for everyone to do. Children and parents alike will love taking a ride down the mighty Mississippi River using the River Walk. Visitors are treated to the rare pleasure of following this major river upstream and it is sure to be an adventure that they will cherish for the rest of their lives. If you are a history buff, you will fall in love with the sheer possibilities that a trip to Memphis offers its visitors. You can have a look at the Memphis Belle, the infamous bomber. A visit to this historic and vibrant city will bring back scenes from the Hollywood movie called Memphis Belle to your mind. A visit to Graceland, that mansion made so famous by the King of rock and roll, Elvis Presley is the high point of a visit to Memphis. This mansion has been preserved delicately to reflect all the details of the time when Elvis was alive. Taking part in the candlelight vigil at Graceland every 16th of August marking the death anniversary of Elvis is quite an event that draws millions of pilgrims even today. The Peabody Hotel is certainly a place that both adults and children should find entertaining when they visit Memphis. The famous hotel is home to a group of famous ducks who call the roof of the hotel their home. Every morning round 10 these spoiled ducks actually take an elevator ride down to the grounds so that they can feed. The hotel is not just a hot spot for the ducks and tourists because even local big shots tend to make several visits out to the hotel every year for one reason or another. Especially for the children (but conveniently located close to other forms of entertainment that are more suitable to adults), there is Libertyland Amusement Park. The place is renown for its vintage 1909 carousel but visitors also love the midway games, rides, and shows that take place there each night. If the weather does not permit a visit to the park, then consider taking the children to the Children's Museum of Memphis as it offers a host of entertaining and educational activities to keep children entertained. All in all, Memphis is one of those rare places where there is something exciting to do, regardless of what age group you belong to. Therefore, it’s a good idea to check into the wide assortment of activities offered by this exciting town. Make a list of the places you will visit this year and postpone the others to your next visit. One thing is for sure, you will visit Memphis again!
