What's in a name?

Well, oddly enough, at Cave Hill Cemetery, there's a hill, with a cave.

A natural spring spills forth from this 246 ft deep cave. Standing upright, the cave could be explored for about 100ft. No, it's not allowed... There is a colony of bats that inhabit the cave. Bats pouring from a cave at dusk in a cemetery would be quite a visual.

Phoenix Hill

While Phoenix Hill isn't home to many top sights, Nulu Market Place and Thomas Edison House are some notable places to visit nearby.

Top Russell Hotel Reviews

Towneplace Suites By Marriott Louisville Downtown

10/10 Excellent

"Clean and comfortable. Many options for breakfast. Enjoyed the bar/lounge but would have liked it more if small bites were an option. Unsure why the firepit was lit, for the smokers to enjoy a cigarette, but I guess there was a reason."
