Elvis Presley Birthplace & Museum

The most significant landmark of Tupelo's modern history is a modest, two-room house where the King of Rock & Roll was born January 8, 1935. From this humble beginning, Elvis Presley began his swift rise to become the world's most popular entertainer. The house, built by his father with $180, draws over 100,000 visitors each year from across the world and is part of the 15-acre Elvis Presley Park. The home is a Mississippi landmark and the centerpiece of the park which also includes a museum that chronicles his lift, "Elvis at 13" statue, Elvis' childhood church, and more.

Tupelo Buffalo Park & Zoo

The location of the Tupelo Buffalo Park & Zoo began as a cattle ranch run by Dan Franklin. In 1997, Dan added buffalo and slowly started removing the cattle. At one time, Dan had 300 buffalo, which was the largest herd of buffalo East of the Mississippi River. In 2001, the construction of the zoo began and the Tupelo Buffalo Park and Zoo officially opened in November. The park is now located on 210 acres and boasts over 260 animals. The park is home to a 19-foot-tall giraffe, Tall Boy, one of the tallest giraffes in the United States. It is also home to the world-famous Oliver, a Capuchin monkey, whose two escapes in 2007 made newspapers worldwide. Oliver’s escapes were mentioned on The Colbert Report and David Letterman's Top 10 List. Oliver is now the proud father of six baby Capuchin monkeys. Some of the other animals you can see at the park are zebras, an African lion, ring-tail lemurs, camel, yak, and many more!

Some interesting features in the park include feeding the animals. You can feed the goats, sheep, deer, and many other animals. The kids always love the pony rides, zip line, and playing in the fort. Enjoy the Bison tour that takes you out into the pasture where you can come face to face with lots of animals including buffalo, zebras, water buffalo, and Watusi cattle! Don't forget our annual Pumpkin Patch throughout October where you can enjoy hay rides, a corn maze, and picking your pumpkin.
