If you happen to be a hardcore Elvis Presley fan or just have a casual interest, TheTravel has posted a list of ten places in Memphis, Tennessee they should visit.
I was last in Memphis six years ago (it hardly seems possible) and visited Graceland and Sun Studio. I also visited Beale Street on a prior visit.

According to TheTravel:
Whether you’re a lifelong Elvis fan or a new convert, thanks to the Baz Luhrmann movie starring Austin Butler and Tom Hanks, one thing is certain: Elvis fever is back. The King of Rock and Roll famously grew up in Memphis. Each year, an estimated 500,000 people flock to Graceland to tour the iconic home he purchased when he became rich and famous. While touring Graceland is undoubtedly one of the best things to do in Memphis, there are lesser-known sites in Memphis that shed light on Elvis’s early years and musical development. Some of them are such unassuming visitors might even pass them by without understanding their significance or connection to music history.
If you’re looking for things to do in Memphis, this guide will take you to the recording studio where Elvis was discovered, the low-income housing project where he grew up, his favorite restaurant, clubs, and more.
To see what they are, go here.
