A tour of the historic cities, quaint towns and lush countryside of Yazoo County is always beautiful in spring when azaleas, dogwoods and wisteria create a burst of color amid the rolling hills. Autumn in the Delta means a seemingly endless sea of white cotton beneath a clear blue sky, providing a picturesque reflection of the Deep South.

Yazoo County's historic architecture is reflected in Yazoo City, Satartia, Bentonia, Benton and along quiet rural roads in between. Most of these homes are private residences and open only under special arrangements. A driving or walking tour can provide a satisfying glimpse of the county's architectural heritage.
