Useful information:
The "Ol' Man River" symbolizes the deep south of the United States.

The Mississippi River, short Mississippi, is an approximately 3,800 km long river that flows through the states of Minnesota, Wisconsin, Iowa, Illinois, Missouri, Kentucky, Tennessee, Arkansas, Mississippi and Louisiana. Together with the Missouri River, the lower reaches of the Mississippi form the fourth longest river system in the world, the "Mississippi-Missouri", with a length of over 6,000 km.

It provides the state of the South with its name. The name was borrowed from the Native American Algonquin language and means no more and no less than "Great River" or "Father of Rivers".

Anyone traveling upstream by steamer can hardly get enough of the endless landscape with its rolling hills, cotton fields and sugar cane. The scent of magnolias fills the air during stops in the sleepy-looking little villages.
