About Natchez

Natchez, Mississippi is the antebellum-mansion town par excellence, with more than thirty preserved Greek Revival and Italianate plantation houses opened to visitors during the spring and autumn pilgrimages. Longwood (the unfinished octagonal mansion with its onion dome), Stanton Hall and Melrose are the standard cruise-passenger visits. The Natchez Trace Parkway, the Mississippi River bluff overlook at Natchez Under-the-Hill, and the small but historic Forks of the Road slave-market site complete the shore-excursion programme.
