46 Bristol, Virginia
Perhaps not quite as famous outside of the country music scene, Bristol VA is known as the birthplace of this quintessentially American genre. Take a visit to the Birthplace of Country Music Museum to find out how the whole thing got started, and obviously while there, you should try to catch a show. Music lovers can also stop off in Bristol as part of the Crooked Road music tour. Music isn't where it starts and stops in Bristol, however, and you'll find Bristol is in easy reach of the Appalachian Caverns.
