The Central destination of Arkansas is home to cities like Little Rock and outdoor activities, delicious cuisine, craft beer breweries and so much more.

Musical Undertones

The other two regions of the state run along the Mississippi River Delta and are filled with bluesy music notes. If you’ve heard the term Delta blues, its origin can be attributed to the Upper Delta and the Lower Delta. The Upper Delta was once the home of music legend Johnny Cash, and in the Lower Delta—one of the birthplaces of blues, jazz and folk—banjos and fiddles reign supreme. But in the midst of the music, you’ll also find historical sites, tasty barbecue, an Andy Dye signature golf course and other sites, sounds and endeavors that let you get to know the state.
