Natchez
antebellum mansions on a bluff over the Mississippi
Natchez is one of the places Roamward flags on the Natchez Trace Parkway because it gives the drive its texture: antebellum mansions on a bluff over the Mississippi. Use it as a planned pull-over instead of letting the route become a blur between towns.
How it fits the drive
The Natchez Trace runs Nashville, TN → Natchez, MS. An ancient path turned quiet parkway.
