Don't forget to check out the Skydeck, a rooftop venue with live music.

The addition of Skyline Park, with its mini golf and Skee-Ball, means kids love coming here, too. Chelsea Market | New York, NY Photo courtesy of AlizadaStudios/iStock by Getty Images Photo courtesy of AlizadaStudios/iStock by Getty Images Given its location in Manhattan's historic Meatpacking District, it's no wonder that Chelsea Market has become one of the top spots to sample New York's culinary delights.

Not to be missed is Fred's Meat & Bread, which enjoys a nod from Michelin for its unbeatable cheesesteak and juicy burgers. Legacy Food Hall | Plano, TX Photo courtesy of ViewApart/iStock by Getty Images Photo courtesy of ViewApart/iStock by Getty Images Legacy Food Hall is spread over three levels with 20-plus restaurants and bars. Dig into Texas brisket served over mac and cheese, nachos or potato skins, or keep it light with sashimi (made with fish imported from Japan) from Hōru Sushi Kitchen. If a few drinks from the High Bar Taproom have provided you with a little liquid courage, stick around for the hall's live band karaoke on Thursday nights. Liberty Public Market | San Diego, CA Photo courtesy of Liberty Public Market Photo courtesy of Liberty Public Market Originally a mess hall and commissary for the Navy, the Liberty Public Market invites locals and tourists alike to continue the tradition of communal eating and sharing with its vibrant food vendors and open seating.

Nashille treasure hunt: Instagram account hides cash across Music City
The game is simple. Find the Cash Nash hides money throughout the city. And well, finders, keepers. In just a few short days, the instagram account will celebrate one year of hiding cold, hard cash across Music City. In just a year, they've amassed 85,000 followers on Instagram. So what's their deal? The instagram account was started July 16, 2024 and that same day it posted their first $50 "cash drop." The person who hides the cash rarely shows their face, just a video of them taping the cash to poles, under signs or outside parks in neighborhoods across the city. Whoever gets there the fastest gets to keep the money no strings attached. There's no identifying information on the account except a business email linked to Win-It Entertainment, an entity described as a virtual entertainment company specializing in online events. Nashville isn't the only city with an account. According to Instagram, there are accounts in Tampa Bay, Austin, Atlanta, Houston and Indianapolis. In the last year, the account has hidden cash about 100 times. The very first drop of cash happened on the back patio of Legends Corner bar across from the Assembly Food Hall and the National Museum of African American Music. Since then, the "cash drops" have been all over the city. Cash has been taped to the John Seigenthaler Pedestrian Bridge, outside Vanderbilt's baseball stadium and on poles along Broadway. They've taped cash to The Truck Stop in Donelson, under benches in Shelby Park Shelby out East, along a white picket fence in Germantown and outside the Mall at Green Hills. Usually, the account will post videos of $50 drops. They, on occasion, do collaborations with other businesses for $1,000 giveaways, tickets to Predators games and at Christmas gave away a PS5. The largest "cash drop" so far was for $500, but as recently as June 20 gave away $250. In total, the account has given away well over $8,000 in cash and other prizes.
