The following excerpt showcasing Lexington, KY as a “Top 5 Bust Small Cities in the U.S.” was published by Condé Nast Traveler’s as a part of their Readers Choice awards:
Good things come in small packages, and nowhere is that more evident than in these 10 dynamic, reader-favorite cities. Whether you’re on the lookout for a cutting-edge arts scene, inventive new restaurants, or eye-catching architecture, you’re bound to find the next big new thing in travel.
4. Lexington, Ky.
Despite its Horse Capital of the World moniker, equines are only a small part of Lexington’s appeal. (Though the Kentucky Horse Park and the Keeneland Race Course are both worth a spot on your itinerary.) Thanks to its location on the Kentucky Bourbon Trail, the city is a treasure trove of distilleries, ranging from the biggies (Jim Beam, Maker’s Mark) to local darlings like Fresh Bourbon Distillery and Bluegrass Distillers. Lexington’s spirits scene is matched only by its culinary scene: Be sure to stop by Doodles for loaded breakfast sandwiches, Bourbon on Rye for burgers topped with beer cheese, and Crank & Boom for an ice cream flight to write home about.
