About Memphis, Tennessee
Memphis is a city in Shelby County, Tennessee, United States, and its county seat. Occupying a substantial bluff rising from the Mississippi River, the site of Memphis has been a natural location for human settlement by varying indigenous cultures over thousands of years. One of the largest celebrations of the city is Memphis in May. The month-long series of events promotes Memphis's heritage and outreach of its people far beyond the city's borders. (Wikipedia)
