    I have been to Graceland several times and it still amazes me each time I go. The RCA stusio is one of my favorite parts. There are several guitars in there that Elvis actually played. Not to mention most are autographed. There are many others in the studio played by other famous artists as well. Memphis is no doubt a city one must see not only because of Graceland, but there are many other attractions continuously being built nearby!
