Jackson is most known for BBQ food and the blues as well as bluegrass music. The governor's mansion is exactly that - the official residence of the governor of Mississippi.The Mississippi Coliseum hosts most of the concerts and other live performances in the area. Jackson is also known for the Mississippi Farmer's Market where people enjoy socializing as much as shopping for fresh locally-sourced produce.
