Mini Graceland

Knee-high replicas of important buildings in the King's life - including Graceland, the Tupelo birthplace, and the Roanoke Civic Center (where Elvis was scheduled to perform only days before the tragedy), among others. The buildings sit in a yard on the side of Mill Mountain, are peopled with Barbie and Ken dolls, and you just gotta see it. I'm from there, and visit periodically when I'm home for a visit. When last I was by, a local artist had donated a 5-foot tall bronze statue of the Man. Wonderful stuff.
