Tips from locals
A national Historic Landmark and home of the Kentucky Derby and the Kentucky Oaks, Churchill Downs racetrack conducts Thoroughbred horse racing in Louisville, Kentucky during three race meets in the Spring, September, and the Fall. No races? Take a 30-min tour at the Kentucky Derby Museum!
Gamble or don't, still a cool place to see. Also, the Kentucky Derby Museum is located here.
Iconic thoroughbred horse-racing track (it hosts the Kentucky Derby), with a museum & tours. HIGHLY RECOMMEND the tour!!!
