This place is beautiful and very touching. It's a great compliment to go to Memphis Civil Rights Museum at the Lorraine Motel and then come here - that what we did. You'll find MLK and his wife's burial site here, and there is also the king center where you go to get tickets for the house tour. The house tour was chilling - being able to walk through and see the EXACT place the King family lived their lives was breath taking. Across the street you'll find the historic Ebenezer church. If you don't know what that is, look it up now. The church reminded me so much of my own home church and just one of those down home African American church feels to it. It smelled and feeled just like my own churches from home. Beautiful experience. I would advice going early in the morning if you're there during the popular summer crowds - for an introvert like me it was a lot more relaxed unless you don't mind a large crowd of people. If you're lucky you'll hear a young gentleman who does a MLK imitation speech and he sounds so much like him. Again, the place is amazing and I think it's a must for anyone to visit.
