About New Orleans
Whether you know it as "The City that Care Forgot" or "The Big Easy," New Orleans is a lot more than just a party town. Completely unique thanks to its French, Spanish and African-American cultural legacies and a history rich with heroes and scoundrels, New Orleans is also a city of profound resiliency. It's a city that refused to be swept away by the devastation of Hurricane Katrina. And while scars remain in some neighborhoods, especially the Lower Ninth Ward, key destinations like the French Quarter, St. Charles Avenue, Magazine Street, and the Garden District are once again the vibrant, bustling centers of activity they always have been. Residents, too, have been energized by this renaissance, welcoming visitors with a characteristically warm embrace. New Orleans' signature charm is unmistakable, and one day among its live oaks and gracious architecture - or one night spent on bawdy Bourbon Street - will have you yearning for another visit before you've even completed the first. Voodoo and the bayou. The Superdome and Mardi Gras. Saints and sinners. Steamy jazz and muggy nights. Po'boys and beignets ... Laissez les bon temps rouler, indeed!
Did you know?
It's often difficult to believe that Mardi Gras has religious roots. The almost-anything-goes event takes place each year during the two weeks prior to Ash Wednesday - always 47 days before Easter. The marathon celebration is filled with drinking, parades, music, beads, and costumes, and anyone who's been there can "ga-ron-tee" it's not anything you'll quickly forget! "Throw me something, Mister!"
