World Atlas Names Vicksburg 1 of 7 Most Charming River Towns In Mississippi To Visit In 2024

A website called “World Atlas” named Vicksburg as one of the seven most charming river towns to visit in Mississippi this year.

This is what they wrote about Vicksburg in their article.

“Vicksburg perches on a high bluff overlooking the Mississippi River and at its meeting point with the Yazoo River.

While the town is naturally beautiful and charming, history buffs will be delighted here as the town features attractions like the National Military Park, which is a great place to learn about the Civil War Battle of Vicksburg.

The Old Depot Museum is another interesting historic attraction here featuring exhibits that reflect the area’s railroad and Civil War history.

For something different, check out the Biedenharn Coca-cola Museum, where Coca-Cola was first bottled in 1894, and see various artifacts on display that unveil the evolution of the iconic soft drink.

Next, visit the Riverfront Mural to see beautiful murals that depict the town’s history.

Before leaving, be sure to recline at the Yazoo River, admire the steel bridge, stroll on its banks, and capture nature’s raw beauty with a camera.”
