I pronounce it like louEville when you really pronounce the e.

As I am from "Lou ah vulle" this popped up in my feed. These are all solid suggestions but you are going to need more than 15 minutes to enjoy The Falls of the Ohio park. It's quite large and is being expanded in the near future. Muth's Candies in in the middle of the East Market district or "NuLu". A formally rundown area that's seen a resurgence over the past decade or so. Lot's of great restaurants and shops. It's close to the Big Four foot bridge. Also there is the new Louisville FC soccer stadium that opened this year. The Old Louisville neighborhood is worth mentioning. It's just south of downtown and is the largest collection of Victorian style homes in the country outside of NYC. The center piece is St James Court next to Central Park. There's a large art festival there every year.

Really surprised you didn’t visit/mention The Mega Caverns ..... it is an underground cave system that allows hiking as well as zip lining and during the holidays you can drive through and everything is decorated with beautiful lights.

Locals from all around the city come to this area because it has the most unique display of goods, services, and restaurants. It also embodies Louisville’s hipster and alternative culture, and you can observe many different kinds of people, aesthetics, outfits and energies. Pronunciation sounds like a local 👌🏽 good job bro

Your pronunciation was spot on. Sounded more like someone from Kentucky. There's 2 ways of saying it, and you used the pronunciation that we like.

Honestly, coming from someone who has lived in Kentucky their whole life and currently lives in Louisville, your pronunciation is spot on. Nothing gives away that someone isnt from around here than a Louie-Ville or Louis-Ville. Kentuckians will never say Ville for any of our towns lol, the goal is as little syllables as possible, and I like the guy who said to say it like youve got rocks in your mouth lol. For food and shopping, Market st (known as Nulu) is where its at, and also 4th street has great places to check out and at night it becomes 4th street Live thanks to the live music. Waverly Hills Sanatorium is also in Louisville. Theres also Mellwood arts center which has a great antique shop and Fleur De Flea which is another great place for antiques and local artists

I think you guys definitely hit the main attractions of downtown and the surrounding areas of Louisville, but I think you should have mentioned some more unique areas like the Highlands, NuLu or Germantown. There are amazing restaurants in those areas along with cool art installations and farmer's markets/thrifting options. Also, the Speed Art Museum at UofL is very interesting!

Great job with the attractions! An up and coming one is Waterfront Botanical Gardens, just off of River Road and a little east of the Big Four walking bridge. It’s fairly new and a little small still in early 2021, but they are adding to it all the time and will eventually have a big conservatory and many gardens. It’s an exciting addition to the city!

Glad you enjoyed it, although it looked like a seriously off time, haha. From a tourist perspective you nailed it. Things you missed? Well, regardless of what any ranking says, Louisville’s park system is phenomenal. The Olmsted designed Cherokee Park comes to mind. The new Parklands is like a mini national park. And there are so many others. The urban core neighborhoods are uniquely charming, from the Highlands to Crescent Hill to St. Matthews to Old Louisville to Germantown. Too many eccentric bars and restaurants and shops there to mention. Catching a UofL basketball game or minor league pro game downtown is usually fun. And Oldham County has some beautiful farms that offer horseback lessons and riding.

I live in Louisville and I love how you pronounced it. Lol thank you

WOW! Place from project zomboid game!

LooaVull, KY 💪 you nailed it for a local

Great job. I would totally recommend Impellizzeri's as well. It's a favorite of many. Unfortunately they have closed their downtown location. They still have three other area locations plus one down in Elizabethtown so you can still get that great Louisville pizza, you'll just have to go to the Highlands, Middletown, or the one on Brownsboro Rd. Others have mentioned a lot of the other attractions like ATL, the Science Center, and the Zoo, but I'd like to point out that we have some great libraries to visit as well. The library at the University of Louisville actually has the largest collection of Edgar Rice Burroughs memorabilia. It's not always on display so you'd need to check in advance but if you have someone with you that is a big ERB fan, it would be a must. There's also a pretty lively local music scene as well, at least there was before the pandemic. Hopefully that can get going again soon. I know many local musicians are dying to get out there and perform before a live audience again.

Bardstown Rd in the Highlands is a great place to walk to different local shops and restaurants as well as a lot of bars

Positive thoughts from Grand Rivers Kentucky
