Bardstown, Kentucky, is often referred to as the most beautiful small town in America, and we don’t disagree. This winsome Kentucky town is full of charm and history, and is just plain delightful to visit.

Bardstown, Kentucky, is one of the most charming towns in The Bluegrass State.

This Nelson County locale has been recognized time and time again as one of the best small towns in America, in fact.

Settled in 1780, Bardstown is Kentucky's second-oldest city, and it's a place that's very proud of its heritage and history.

Throughout Nelson County, there are more than 300 buildings on the National Register of Historic Places, with nearly 200 of them located in Bardstown's Historic Downtown district.

Exploring Bardstown on a walking tour is pretty picture-perfect, but there's another way to enjoy the city that's downright delightful.

Around The Town Carriage offers narrated, horse-drawn carriage tours through the heart of Bardstown's Historic District.

These carriage rides provide a slow-paced way to see the very best sites in this winsome little town.

In addition to the eponymous carriage rides, Around The Town Carriage has old-fashioned buggies and even a stagecoach available for their horse-drawn tours, too!

These horse-drawn carriage rides really allow for a slow savor of Bardstown's unique and beautiful scenery. (In addition to numerous historic buildings, the town has 11 distilleries, and is actually known as the Bourbon Capital of the World!)

A place as beautiful as Bardstown really must be admired.
