## Caption

When you think of Kentucky, your mind might go straight to fried chicken or college sports—which, hey, aren’t bad things to associate with a state. But the Bluegrass State has so much more. Take a trip to Lexington (just a three-hour drive from Nashville) where the green grass has a blue-ish tint and locals know racehorses by name like they’re celebrities. ⁠
⁠
The first priority on your Lexington list should be horses: Check out Keeneland, the world’s biggest thoroughbred auction house, to take in a horse race, or visit a horse farm like Claiborne Farms. Afterwards, try the best whiskey in the country at Barrel House Distilling Co., Lexington Brewing & Distilling Co., or James E. Pepper, eat your way through the town at local restaurants like Greyline Station and Old North Bar & Kitchen, and then end it with a nightcap at Lost Palm. For more to hit in Lexington, check our link in bio. ⁠
