Must-See Mississippi: Emerald Mound

This post contains affiliate links to products mentioned. For more information, read my disclosure policy.

Yes, I know…it’s a hill with grass on top. That’s what I always kind of thought before…which really was the result of a bad memory of a very long day trip to Philadelphia as a child only to be severely disappointed when we arrived at Nanih Waiya just in time to take a look and leave.  Boring.  Our visit to Emerald Mound?  Not boring at all.

Y’all…this thing is huge!  The kids had a blast climbing up and rolling down.  Again and again.

It would be a great place to pack a picnic and visit one day, especially if you’re visiting other things in the Natchez area.  Just remember:  there are no bathrooms so be prepared. (At least, I didn’t notice any.)

It’s really interesting to see how and why the mounds were built and to know it’s the second largest mound in the U.S.  Pretty cool, huh?

Enjoy!
