The "Cradle of Jazz" is a city influenced by Spanish and French culture. Every year, the city hosts the famous 'Mardi Gras' festival.

St. Francisville is a town in and the parish seat of West Feliciana Parish, Louisiana, United States. The town of St. Francisville was established in 1809, and a number of historic structures from that period still exist. St. Francisville is a popular tourist destination, with a number of restored historic plantations open daily for tours. In 1810, St. Francisville served as the capital of the Republic of West Florida for 74 days after planters ousted the Spanish government ruling in that area.

Established first as a French fort site overlooking the Mississippi River in 1716, then laid out as a new town by the Spanish in the 1790s, Natchez became part of the United States in 1798. Natchez is more than history. It’s what you love about South — easy elegance and casual charm, true hospitality, historic homes, lush gardens and moss-covered oaks and delicious down-home fare

Vicksburg is a city in and county seat of Warren County, Mississippi, United States. Vicksburg is located at the confluence of the Mississippi River and Yazoo River. Every summer, Vicksburg plays host to the Miss Mississippi Pageant and Parade. Every spring and summer, Vicksburg Theatre Guild hosts Gold in the Hills, which is in the Guinness World Records book for longest running show. Vicksburg is home to the McRaven House, said to be "one of the most haunted houses in Mississippi".

Greenville is the land of cotton and the Delta Blues, where the stories are bigger than catfish and as powerful as the waters of Ole Man River.

Modern-day Memphis stakes its identity on two things: musical history and BBQ pork. It delivers marvelously on both. The slick downtown area bustles with pilgrims who come to worship at the altars of Elvis and Johnny Cash.
