GRACELAND
First stop? Get yourself to Graceland and Elvis Presley’s Memphis Entertainment Complex. Located 14 kilometres south of central Memphis, Graceland has now been declared a National Historic Landmark. It is also the second most visited home in the US.
From the 4.5-metre sofa to the stained-glass peacock panels between the living room and music room, to the exotic decor of the infamous Jungle room, Graceland is just as good as you’d think. There is shag carpet galore along with many other iconic items – including the Jungle room where there is a waterfall wall (yep, a whole wall), stand-up ashtrays, ornate wood carved chairs and overuse of dark green and burnt orange. Elvis also owned five planes in his lifetime, two of which are on display at Graceland, the Lisa Marie and the Hound Dog II. There’s also a racquetball court and the Trophy Building that tells the Presley family’s story. Behind the Trophy building is Elvis’ kidney-shaped pool and the Meditation Garden and final resting place where Elvis, his mother Gladys, his father Vernon, his grandmother Minnie Mae and his grandson Benjamin Keough are buried.
