Top 10 Things To Do, Activities and Attractions in Vicksburg

"Perhaps one of the best things to see in Vicksburg, the Vicksburg National Military Park features over 1,400 monuments and memorials honoring the soldiers and events of the Civil War. Located on the same ground where the Battle of Vicksburg took place over a century ago, a trip to the battlefield will give you an understanding of the war that you won’t get from reading about it. Here you can take the driving or walking tour through the park, depending on your interest and time frame, either with the help of the Official Park Brochure and Map or a tour guide."

"Many historians rank the Siege of Vicksburg as one of the top five most important battles of the Civil War. So this park a must-see. Established in 1899 and now operated by the National Park Service, the Vicksburg National Military Park preserves battlefield features as they appeared back in 1863."

"Vicksburg, Mississippi is home to the Vicksburg National Military Park. It is open throughout the year, and during open hours visitors may bike, hike, jog, practice yoga and engage in other physical activities. Camping is not permitted."

"Finally, no trip to Vicksburg would be complete without a stop at Catfish Row, for both children and adults alike, which aims to demonstrate what life was like in Vicksburg long ago, with paddle wheel steamboats and more. The perfect opportunity to learn in the fresh air. And of course, while you are in the area, consider stopping by to see us at Blackburn CDJR. Our giant selection of new and used vehicles may just include your next vehicle, and we'd be happy to set you up on a test drive!"

"The splash park is modeled on the steamboat Sprague (SPRAYG). We had great fun standing at the wheel and exploring the art. Pro Tip: Catfish Row is completely accessible."

"If you love architecture, Vicksburg has 11 historic tour homes dating between the 1790s and the early 1900s, representing styles like Greek Revival, Eastlake, Victorian and Italianate. The McRaven Tour Home has a particularly eclectic history, and it’s widely considered the “most haunted house” in Mississippi. As a bonus for visitors spending multiple days in town, at least seven of these homes offer bed-and-breakfast accommodations."

"Without witnessing the historic houses of Vicksburg, your trip to this town is totally incomplete. From Greek apertures to Victorian Italianate, Vicksburg has it all, preserved and in some cases, restored.
