THE LOWER MISSISSIPPI RIVER

THE RIVER THAT DEFINES A NATION

he lower stretch of the Mississippi, from carefree New Orleans to vibrant T Memphis, is the river of Legends - the river of centuries-old shaded oak trees, elegant antebellum plantations, cobblestone streets and Victorian mansions. Hear the river’s music in rock and roll, blues, jazz and zydeco and savor its culinary diversity with a host of distinctive Creole and Cajun delights. The world of Mark Twain’s revered book Life on the Mississippi is best experienced from the vantage points of the graceful American Queen and the lavish American Duchess.

Celebrate New Orleans’ unabashed and unapologetic joy in the fine restaurants and sidewalk cafés of the French Quarter, the jazz clubs lining Bourbon Street and the strolling musicians in Jackson Square. Music is also the heart and soul of Memphis – from Elvis’ inspiring Graceland to the blues joints of Beale Street. The city’s National Civil Rights Museum chronicles a long journey to freedom and the Stax Museum of American Soul Music records the rise of a beloved musical art form.

Between these glittering cities is a necklace of traditional plantations and homes. Oak Alley transports you back to the era of hoop skirts, cotillions and cotton fields. The flowers, fountains and pathways found on Nottoway Plantation are a testament to the Louisiana way of life before the Civil War. Natchez, Mississippi’s captivating historic district shines in the lovingly restored homes of Magnolia Hall, Rosalie Mansion and the William Johnson House.

Thousands of tombstones which mark the fallen in Vicksburg, Mississippi, reflect the tragic sacrifices of the Civil War. French Canadian fur trappers defined Cajun culture in bold Baton Rouge, Louisiana, while the lost settlement of Bayou Sara below the bluffs of St. Francisville, Louisiana, was once the busiest pre-Civil War port between New Orleans and Memphis.

Inhale the sweet fragrance of magnolia blossoms, relax in a rocking chair with a glass of sweet tea and watch the essence of the south unfold around you.
