Other Natchez Highlights
The Natchez Bluff & Bluff Park
Walk along the clifftop park for some of the most iconic views of the Mississippi River in the South. Best at sunset.
Natchez Under-the-Hill
The historic riverfront district at the base of the bluff. Restaurants, live music, and riverboat views, with a completely different vibe than uptown Natchez.
Natchez National Historical Park
A National Park Service site covering several properties including Melrose Estate and the William Johnson House. Essential for history buffs.
Antebellum Homes
Natchez has one of the largest collections of preserved antebellum mansions in the U.S., including Rosalie, Longwood (an unfinished octagonal home), Stanton Hall, and Monmouth.
Natchez Trace Parkway
The 444-mile scenic parkway begins in Natchez and winds up to Nashville. Even a short drive up the Trace is worth it for the quiet, tree-lined scenery.
Downtown Natchez & Main Street
Walkable historic downtown with locally-owned shops, cafes, galleries, and some of the best Southern cooking you'll find on the river.
