Graceland is the former home and current museum/final resting place of Elvis Presley.

The tours are split among a couple of different buildings. To the east, you take a walk through his former home, which might be described as "modest opulence".

Across the street to the west, you can walk through Elvis's plane with its gold seatbelt buckles. You can also see a collection of Elvis's cars.

Elvis is buried outside his home by the swimming, surrounded by the graves of his family.

Elvis Presley was born at this location in Jan. 8, 1935, in the house that his father built for $180. Although the family moved occasionally, they lived mostly in the Tupelo area until 1948 when they left for Memphis.

The city of Tupelo bought the house and land with money from a 1956 Elvis concert, who wanted a park for neighborhood children. Today, the birthplace is part of the 15-acre Elvis Presley Park. On the grounds include the house where he was born, a museum, and a chapel.
