Graceland Mansion: 3764 Elvis Presley Boulevard, Memphis, Tennessee, USA

The Colonial Revival-style mansion, which was built in 1939, has eight bedrooms and four bathrooms.  About half of the 23 rooms in the house are off-limits to visitors, including the entire second floor — where the star’s master suite is located.

A tourist can reach this mansion by a shuttle bus from the Graceland ticketing building.

The entire second floor where Elvis’ bedroom is located is closed to the public.

Visitors were in line and had to keep moving because many people were touring the house.
