Memphis - Graceland
Graceland
Even though not everyone shares the cult for Elvis Presley, Graceland, the palatial house at 3734 Elvis Presley Boulevard that he acquired in 1957 is a national place of pilgrimage.
Here fans of the "King" can walk through his home, lay flowers on his tomb, see his two private jets and his automobiles and stock up in the museum shop with mementos of their idol, who lived here in his days of glory and in the last unhappy years - though there is no reference to these years on the guided tours of the house.

Automobile Museum
Visitors to the Automobile Museum at Graceland can walk along a landscaped, curbed, tree-lined "highway" past exhibits of vehicles owned by Elvis. Highlights include his famous 1955 pink Cadillac, 1956 purple Cadillac convertible, 1973 Stutz Blackhawk, the red MG Elvis drove in the movie Blue Hawaii, his Harley Davidson motorcycles, and three-wheeled supercycles.
Elvis' Jet Aircraft
Visitors to Graceland are taken to a re-creation of an airport terminal with a video on the history of the Presley planes. The tour continues onto the Hound Dog II Lockheed JetStar plane, and then aboard the much larger customized Lisa Marie jet, which Elvis named after his daughter.
