Natchez is a city near the southwest corner of the U.S. state of Mississippi. This historic town is perched on a high bluff above the Mississippi River 100 miles uprive from New Orleans. It was an important, wealthy city before the Civil War. That history gave it the South's grandest collection of antebellum homes.

 SEE
- Natchez Under-the-Hill is, as the name suggests, under the hill by the Mississippi River at the end of State St. It used to be a rootin' tootin' wild wild west kind of place complete with saloons and gunslinging. Unfortanately later floods washed much of it away, but there is still an old-timey saloon and a casino left.
Natchez is also famous for its many Antebellum houses that are open to the public for tours. In the spring, Natchez celebrates its Southern History with its annual Confederate Pageant.
Another local attraction is Emerald Mound, one of the largest Indian mounds in the nation. It was built by the Natchez indians.
