Very nice. Is cheap to get in and has a lot of things to see. Place is huge and you walk for miles. Used to come here all the time. It's really nice to take a walk in (a lot of people come here for that), and very relaxing (well, as long as you don't read the plaques on any of the memorials)
Vicksburg National Battlefield Park, like Chickamauga National Battlefield Park is told from the perspective of the Union side. The victor writes the history. The monuments are impressive and ostentatious - all to Union states. The old town of Vicksburg is beautiful but surrounding areas are as poor as I've ever seen in the US. The Confederate Cemetery in the center of town is beautiful but not as well maintained as the US cemetery. The USS Cairo museum is spectacular - the last remaining ironclad of its kind. Photo of paddleboat is taken from the Mississippi Welcome Center in Vicksburg, just off Interstate 20.
Great place to run or walk while reflecting on history & God's beautiful creation!
Amazing history here. True sacrafice. Visit and bring the kids.
Only did a short visit but well kept
