The southern state of Mississippi is home to the stream that bears its name, and which is one of the lengthiest rivers in the country. It is also home to a animated culture of friendly people. historic constructions, warm seaside beaches, lakes, parks and delicious Southern cooking. Guests can lounge on the shores at the Gulf-Coast, track the Mississippi Blues Trail for a musical adventure. visit Elvis Presley's birthplace, or enjoy their days fishing on a peaceable lake.
Jackson, Mississippi
The capital of Mississippi, Jackson, bids its impressive capitol building and governor’s mansion. which are excessive for photographing and promenading the picturesque grounds. The architecture of these old buildings is amazing, to say the least, which drives for all downtown Jackson.
Foodies will enjoy the Fondren area of Jackson, a charming village with attractive eateries and bakeries. Stop in Saltine Oyster Bar for fresh huitres and Brent’s Drugs for pleasant burgers, soup, and shakes. For date night, visit the striking Walker’s Drive-In bistro for wonderful food and flawless service.

One of my favorite things in Jackson is joining a Mississippi Braves baseball game. This expensive ballpark (Trustmark Park) bids good food and lots of entertainment, plus it’s fun for the entire family.

The Mississippi State Fair is a must visit. and you’ll go crazy for Mistletoe Marketplace, the way to tackle up for the holidays by shopping for gifts and Christmas flags.
Oxford, Mississippi
Oxford flaunted as the “Cultural Mecca of the South,” is home to the University of Mississippi, termed as Ole Miss. This is a school of Southern societies and the swankiest football dogging in the nation. The school originated in 1848 and is one of the nation’s best public universities.

When arrival into Oxford, the first thing to do is to discover The Square. the area around the downtown Lafayette County Courthouse, the town’s pivotal point and a landmark since 1872. Expect ritzy eateries, high-end shopping, a 180+-year-old department store (Neilson’s), and one of the greatest independent book stores in the country, Square Books.
If you need help determining where to eat, my bet is always on Bouré and Ajax Diner, where Southern subjects are the leads and a good state representation.
The SEC Ole Miss Rebels are a favourite sports squad in Mississippi. Famous alumni contain Archie and Eli Manning, Michael Oher, Kate Jackson, and John Grisham.
Nobel Prize-winning author William Faulkner lived in Oxford on a property known as Rowan Oak. Tours of Rowan Oak are available, and I endorse taking one. The property is beautiful, and the landscape festooned with moss-dripping live oaks and rowan trees.
Hattiesburg, Mississippi
Hattiesburg is a big city, much bigger than you would imagine. Home to many momentous sites and Southern Miss (The University of Southern Mississippi), this part of Mississippi is growing by leaps and limits. I almost don’t spot it every time I come back. Expect chef-inspired restaurants (lots of them!), colourful, noticeable murals, interesting statuaries, and fun shopping in Hattiesburg. They even have a compact museum in the downtown area.
There are two floors to look and a backyard full of riches, too. Items range from vintage neon signs to Tupperware and Corning ware from the 50s and 60s to trendy t-shirts, seasonal streamers, gourmet foods, and retro toys.
Vicksburg, Mississippi
Recognized for the battle that changed the sequence of the American Civil War, Vicksburg honours Southern hospitality and is a pleasant place to visit. Take a wander down Washington Street to enjoy all the limited boutiques and restaurants.

The waterfront is home to the Vicksburg Murals, portraying all the historical events in the town over the years. The photogenic murals and Old Depot Museum sit the Mississippi River. The museum allows guests to discover early railroad artifacts.
Cleveland, Mississippi
The Mississippi Delta is such a superior place that I don’t know where to begin. The first is receiving there. The Delta is an area included of many small towns—Cleveland is the heart of the Delta. From there, you can make day tours to see the region, but find incredible accommodation at Cotton House, a Tribute Portfolio Hotel. The rooms are fashionable and hip. with sumptuous fabrics, furnishings, and even a greatest player in your room (with albums) should you want one.
Two prominent places in Cleveland are Dockery Farms and The Grammy Museum, Mississippi. Dockery Farms said to be the origin of the blues. The sheer number of talented musicians that engage in recreation. here is mind-boggling (think Charley Patton and Howlin’ Wolf). and it would have been remarkable to see how alive it developed on weekends.

The GRAMMY Museum Mississippi, the only one separate of Los Angeles, is a real Mississippi pearl. Hands-on exhibits, singing/song writing pods, and iconic costumes and instruments fit in to many well-known musicians are only some of the things. You will find here. Plan to occupy about 90-120 minutes in the museum.
