Vacation Day ? (Packaging)




It's all part of the surreal packaging at the massive Oprylands Hotel in Nashville, Tennessee--including a quarter mile indoor river that even features boat rides.

  1. Reminds me of the Venetian hotel in Vegas, where you can ride a gondola through their river.

  2. If the indoor river is a quarter mile long, the hotel must be huge.

  3. We did pay the exorbitant price of $9 apiece to ride the boat. The hotel is unbelievably massive. The glass dome over it is 15 stories high. The ballroom can seat 7000 people. One of the exhibit halls once featured a Black Hawk helicopter. There is a mansion IN the hotel that features a restaurant. The suite where Dolly Parton stays is bigger thant house!

  4. I love that your processing adds to the surreal feel. Looks a bit like the dreaded mall on steroids and LSD!

  5. Your photo really gives a massive look to this space...would be a fun place to see. Spose Dolly needs a large suite in order to contain all her wigs!

  6. Was it like It's a Small World boat ride, where you wanted to jump off to escape something hideous? And were there Minnie Pearl hats for sale?
