What To Do In Louisville, KY

Ok, you are in Louisville, KY and you have no idea what to do. Louisville is the home to the Kentucky Derby and the Louisville Slugger.  Louisville, KY is a major food mecca.  Many stars from your favorite food shows visit Louisville and not just for The Kentucky Derby.  There is also Old Louisville which is the largest preservation district for Victorian homes in America.  Of course, there is also the University Of Louisville (U of L Go Cards) and  U of L lies between Old Louisville and the famous Churchill Downs, home of the Kentucky Derby.  When the Louisville Cardinals aren't playing at the KFC YUM Center there is always a concert.  There are plenty of things to do in the city.  Oh, and our mother has a great place for you to stay in Old Louisville on Airbnb.

Below I will list some of the places to go eat, hang out, visit and just have fun.  Some of the places we frequent and some we plan to visit soon.  I will add things to the list as I think of places or you may also click on our Pinterest page Love Joy Faith- Louisville Choices.  I tend to add more to the Pinterest pages.
