City Tour of Tupelo, Mississippi: Birthplace of Elvis Presley and more!

"Tupelo (/ˈtuːpəloʊ/) is a city in, and the county seat of, Lee County, Mississippi, United States. With an estimated population of 38,300, Tupelo is the sixth-largest city in Mississippi and is considered a commercial, industrial, and cultural hub of North Mississippi." - Wikipedia.org

"Tupelo was incorporated in 1866, although the area had earlier been settled as "Gum Pond" along the Mobile and Ohio Railroad. On February 7, 1934, Tupelo became the first city to receive power from the Tennessee Valley Authority, thus giving it the nickname "The First TVA City". Much of the city was devastated by a major tornado in 1936 that still ranks as one of the deadliest tornadoes in American history. Following electrification, Tupelo boomed as a regional manufacturing and distribution center and was once considered a hub of the American furniture manufacturing industry."

In this video, JOM of the Gravel Cyclist crew conducts a short tour of Tupelo, Mississippi, the birthplace of Elvis Presley, and a lot more.
