Bourbon and Horse Country are Kentucky’s most well-known attractions, and for good reason: they’ve both been around for more than 200 years. But there’s more to the Bluegrass State than the average tourist guide tells you about: from a museum dedicated to the Corvette, the homeplace of country music legend Bill Monroe, the Shaker Village of Pleasant Hill and, of course, delicious hot browns (the area's signature open-faced turkey sandwich)—you're in for a wild time when visiting Kentucky.
