If you happen to find yourself in Money's third top travel destination Memphis, Tennessee, [Holly Whitfield](http://ilovememphisblog.com/) has a few suggestions for you. Make sure you try the barbecue while you're in Memphis. There are quite a few restaurants that offer unique twists to a southern classic. Drop in one of the many blues clubs that can be found in Memphis. Listen and discover new artists while taking in the nightlife.

Memphis is also known as Elvis' hometown, so make sure you stop in at Graceland. And don't forget to walk down main street. There's a lot to see when you visit Memphis.
