11. Schermerhorn Symphony Center

DOWNTOWN.   After much anticipation, the new home of the Nashville Symphony opened in 2006. The stunning building, modelled after a European music hall, is equipped to host a variety of musical performances, including classical, jazz, pop, and blues. The state-of-the-art facility boasts natural lighting, soundproofed windows, and innovative, convertible seats. The concert calendar runs September through May, but the building itself is worth a visit anytime.   (© 10Best)

Contact the center to set up a tour. Your guide will tell you the story behind details hidden in the design. Irises—the state flower—adorn the metal rails. The window trim is patterned with coffee beans, because the orchestra was founded in part with Maxwell House grants. You’ll want to sing the whole way home. (from Southern Living)
