Louisville, Kentucky is a great city, right on the Ohio River and the border of Kentucky and Indiana. The city is home to the Bourbon Trail, Lousiville Slugger, and the Kentucky Derby. It also has lots of history, great museums, and good food. Amie and I spent a few days there in early 2020 and really fell in love with the city. Here are some of our favorite spots and let us know what we left off in the comments.

**Note that we visited in early 2020 and some of this information may have changed. Double check before you go***

  • You 100% pronounced it correctly - that’s exactly how Kentuckians pronounce it! Glad you enjoyed your visit to my home state.

    Wow crazy to see your notification pop up on my phone with my city on the title! Never thought you all would be in louisville, all the way from cali!
  • As I am from "Lou ah vulle" this popped up in my feed. These are all solid suggestions but you are going to need more than 15 minutes to enjoy The Falls of the Ohio park. It's quite large and is being expanded in the near future. Muth's Candies in in the middle of the East Market district or "NuLu". A formally rundown area that's seen a resurgence over the past decade or so. Lot's of great restaurants and shops. It's close to the Big Four foot bridge. Also there is the new Louisville FC soccer stadium that opened this year. The Old Louisville neighborhood is worth mentioning. It's just south of downtown and is the largest collection of Victorian style homes in the country outside of NYC. The center piece is St James Court next to Central Park. There's a large art festival there every year.
  • The Louisville Loop and The Parklands of Floyds Fork are a must see if you like the outdoors.
  • @amandac5307
    As a Louisville resident Numbers 1-14: Drink 15: go to Kroger
  • I live close to the forest giants! My kids and I went to the science center downtown this morning.
  • @jacoblynn826
    Great content, I think the only thing you missed was Waverly Hills. Anyone coming to Louisville looking for adventure should look into getting a tour.

    When someone asks me for my recommendation on what to do in my city, I'm going to send this link. You got everything covered!
  • @NamesRGay
    I live in Louisville and you should've hit ollies trolleys !!!! Great burger joint!
  • Louisville Slugger Field is downtown, the city's Triple A baseball team's home stadium. Clean, family friendly, very reasonably priced, and not a bad seat in the park. A real gem.
  • I've lived in Louisville for over 21 years and didn't know about all of the distilleries wow!
  • @user-kf9tl9vv4k
    Louisville was a good place to be if you exclude the horde of zombies ofc
  • @danielm3192
    Born and raised in Louisville. Bernheim Forest is my favorite spot.
  • @tammydowell589
    My hometown is Clarksville Indiana. Luavulle. That is the way I have heard Louisville my whole life.
  • @davidamato768
    Lived here most of my life and love this town. You did a good job presenting my town.
  • You can’t come to Louisville and talk about the food in Louisville without stopping at Indis!
  • @timid8304
    You’re saying it right. Most people who aren’t from here try to pronounce it “Louis-ville” or “louie-Ville” but it’s actually “lou-ah-vull” lol so you’re saying it perfectly. Edit: also you guys should’ve definitely checked out waverly hills sanatorium. It’s another main attraction that brings any notoriety to Louisville.
