Amazing playground and walk. This is a nice get away off the highway. We stopped and let the kids play and get some energy out.

Novel way to beautify the rather unattractive flood gates. Each gate is painted with Vicksburg history and an informational plaque. Most of my pics are cropped, making it hard to realize, the murals are like 10 feet high by 20 ft long!! Worth a visit.

If you like knowing history of an area its a great place to get a rundown of the amazing things that have happened throughout the years. Also theres a fountain that kids can play around in across the street. Ignore the bugs theyre mosquito hawks they eat mosquitoes.

Very nice murals along the levee, and a park/playground as well! If you go on the other side of the levee you can go right down to the water. There’s also a spot on the wall that marks how high the river has flooded at different times historically. Driving through old downtown Vicksburg to get here is an experience too.

A great place to see some art for free. The murals are very nice and we enjoyed looking at every single one. There is some damage on the wall, which is sad.

It was pretty fun! I went with some family from Canada and we loved the history lesson the tour guide told us about the murals!

Absolutely beautiful art. There are several murals painted on the wall entering the boat dock in front of the Mississippi River. Each mural dipects a historical place, event, or person in Vickersburg and has a placard below explaining it. Across from the mural is the ild depot museum 2 restraunts and a playground with a splash pad and local youth art on the play structres. If you take the river tour boat the murals and Old Depot Meusum are one of the stops along the route. A definite stop!

These are one of my favorite places to take Vicksburg visitors! Beautiful murals depicting the history of Vicksburg located right next to the mighty Mississippi. They are also conveniently located near the lovely Depot which now serves as a museum and across from a newly renovated, City provided, FREE water splash pad and play area for children. You can easily spend a good 30 minutes admiring the murals and then walk across the street to Catfish Row and cool your feet at the splash pad for the heavily discounted price of $0.00!

What a delightful way to be greeted when getting off our steam paddle-wheeler in this beautiful and historic town. If the weather had been warmer I could easily have spent an hour perusing these large and skillful artworks from one end to the other.

So many murals done by so many different people. A nice little walk down a pathway by the river. There are some shops as well as a couple restaurants across the street if you get a fancy to buy something or maybe have a bite to eat before going back into the town of Vicksburg. This area is where a couple of the paddle boats drop their people off for the hop-on hop-off tours of Vicksburg
