Begin your blues tour at the Gateway to the Blues Museum. Located on legendary Highway 61 in a rustic train depot, circa 1895, it's a must-stop for travelers before or after a visit to Tunica. The Gateway to the Blues Museum tells the remarkable story of how the blues was born and the role the Delta played in building the genre's legacy. You'll experience interactive exhibits, artwork and more - including a recording studio where you'll learn the basics of blues music with a chance to record your very own blues song.
