Deep in the heart of the Bluegrass State you will find the city of Lexington, which is steeped in southern history, yet full of all the culture of a modern urban center. It is the second largest city in Kentucky and known by some as the ?Horse Capital of the World? because of the local obsession with horse racing and everything to do with this majestic animal. Lexington is even preparing to host the 2010 FEI World Equestrian Games. There is much more to this southern hotspot than horses, though, as visitors discover year after year. Many people are surprised to find just how charming, entertaining, and culturally fulfilling this city of southern hospitality truly is. Many discover Lexington when they visit the state for the Kentucky Derby, which is not far from the city. Lexington is also home to the Keeneland Thoroughbred Horse Track and numerous well-known horse farms. The city also attracts music lovers every year for the Festival of the Bluegrass, the states oldest annual bluegrass festival that takes place every June. The American Indian Festival is another family friendly event, which returns every November featuring food, clothing, music, stories, and other hallmarks of this fascinating culture. Lexington is a well-educated city; it ranks 10th among United States cities in the rate of college education with 39.5 percent of residents holding at least a bachelors degree. The city is home to the University of Kentucky, Transylvania University, and the Bluegrass Community and Technical College. Education and culture go hand in hand, so it is no surprise that Lexington is also home to the Singletary Center for the Arts, the Anthropology Museum, and the Kentucky Theatre. Numerous museums and historical structures are also peppered across the city and surrounding areas. Another great idea for visitors is to start in Lexington and continue on to the surrounding areas, where there are many other great adventures waiting.
