Located in the heart of downtown on the Cumberland River, this has been a longtime venue for outdoor concerts and summertime festivals. History buffs can cruise through Fort Nashborough, although you may stumble across a few amorous couples making out in the old buildings. The new Ghost Ballet art sculpture is on full display from here, so visitors can debate whether it is an eyesore or a boon to the city. A great spot for a cozy picnic if it isnt too humid.
