Jackson Mississippi Vacations

Although it is Mississippi's largest city, and the state capital, Jackson has a slow pace with a distinctly southern lifestyle, and its population of about 400,000 is spread over a large geographic area, making it seem smaller than it is. The main landmark in the city is the old Mississippi State Capitol building in the very centre of the downtown area, modelled on the US Capitol in Washington and adding an impressive dimension to the city skyline. The imposing building now wears a slightly battered look however, damaged as it was by Hurricane Katrina, and many of the artefacts were destroyed, which has forced the Old Capitol Museum to close for the time being.
