The Magnolia State
Mississippi, a land bordered by the Great River, is steeped in southern culture, and brightened by American Music. Well known for its hospitality, friendly Mississippians will charm their visitors from Iuka to Waveland. Historic antebellum mansions, vast tracts of Delta farmland, Civil War battlefields, riverboats and casino resorts dot the map. All claiming Mississippi their home, legendary music artists include Muddy Waters, Jimmy Rodgers and Elvis Presley.
The state’s topography varies from the placid Gulf Shores to the rippling hills of Tishomingo. Recreation sites are found spread throughout its two dozen parks and its beauty may be discovered over five Mississippi scenic byways.
