Situated squarely between Memphis and Nashville on Tennessee's "Heart of the Music Highway," Jackson has been the birthplace of numerous notable musicians in the traditional Southern styles of rockabilly, blues and gospel. The famous names of Jackson include Carl Perkins, Sonny Boy Williamson, Big Maybell and Big Joe Turner. Time your visit right and you might catch the annual Shannon Street Blues Festival or the Rockabilly Festival, hosted by The International Rock-A-Billy Hall of Fame.

The owner made us feel welcome and the wine was excellent with my wife stating the Muscodine was the best she's had. Bart also took the time to explain the history of the area which was fascinating. We highly recommend stopping here!

At Jackson Escape Rooms we build rooms around a story or theme and invite you to test your wits against the challenging clues, perplexing puzzles, and maddening mysteries embedded in the rooms. Be warned, you might get addicted to the thrill of the hunt! Once you escape a Jackson Escape Room, unlocking a door will never feel the same again!
Fun and exciting adventure, first time in a escape room and we loved it had an awesome experience and wonderful staff, definitely going again

We enjoyed our visit. The model train exhibit must have taken many hours of construction as it is quite extensive. The guides were helpful and happy to share their knowledge. Many pictures and maps that give railroad history. Enjoyed getting to see inside the dining car. Free admission

At Rusty's TV & Movie Car Museum we have two buildings and over 50 vehicles that have been used in movies and TV as well as TV and movie memorabilia. There's something for all ages! Many of the cars are the actual cars used in the shows and can only be seen here. the last tour starts at 4:30 so you have time to enjoy the museum thanks rusty admission is 10 for adults and 5 for kids 12 and under... under 5 is free
We stopped by here for a nice mid-trip break between Memphis and Nashville. It's not far off the highway. When we arrived it looked like it might be closed because the door windows are mirror tinted. Inside we found Rusty who offered us a tour or to let us browse alone. We took him up on the tour which provided key details and history of each car. He then let us wander back alone at our pace to look closer at the cars of interest, take pictures etc. This was definitely a stop worth seeing. He mentioned soon there will be another building with a bunch more cars, so if I'm ever in the area, I will definitely come take a look.
