But Presley’s pad isn’t the only Memphis must-see

-

It would be a horrendous disservice to leave Memphis without visiting the inspiring National Civil Rights Museum (www.civilright­smuseum.org).

It’s fronted by the Lorraine Motel, where Martin Luther King Jr was shot on April 4, 1968.

From the appalling cruelty of the slave trade, which displaced 12.5million Africans, to Rosa Parks’s courageous stand, there are hours of learning here.
