Kentucky

The inspiration of Kentucky’s rich culture and special spirit is the beauty of its land. There are majestic mountains in the east, vast sparkling lakes in the west, and in between, deep lush forests and rolling fields of bluegrass. Below ground is the world’s longest cave system and above ground are ancient river gorges and pristine wilderness areas. All of the natural, scenic beauty provides unlimited outdoor recreational opportunities.

Kentucky is a land that ensures its future by preserving the best of its past. It is a land steep in the rich history of our nation and the home of historic figures that helped form the character of America. It is a land that produces baskets as exquisite as its ballet, and bluegrass music as inspired as its critically acclaimed Humana Festival of New American Plays.
