Our first stop in Nashville was at The Country Music Hall of Fame.. It was a beautiful facility that had opened in May 2001. Election to the Hall of Fame is the most esteemed honor in country music. The Rotunda is a special room (5,300-sq.ft.) designed to recognize Hall of Fame members in a space and fashion befitting this high honor. We didn't get very good pictures in The Rotunda room so we don't have any of that room.
