New Orleans Tourism Information
New Orleans has gained its fame through its food, its music, its excesses and even its debauchery. Mardi Gras and the indiscretions of Bourbon Street have given the city a notoriety that it may not want, cannot deny, but doesn't seem to regret. A New Orleans hotel in the French Quarter puts you in the heart of the city. Small and quaint, most hotels in New Orleans deliver the soul of the Crescent City straight to your room. Book your New Orleans hotel early if you are planning to come for Mardi Gras or another of the city's festivals.

The French Quarter is the most famous sector of the city for tourism. In spite of the cities best efforts to clean it up over the last few years, the spirit of Mardi Gras (equivalent Carnival in many other countries) continues to entrance locals and visitors alike, causing them to shed their inhibitions (and sometimes more). The Quarter is also the birthplace of American Dixieland Jazz and the home of that spicy Cajun cuisine.

Like the French Quarter, the Garden District is a National Historic District where architectural preservation ordinances limit developers from changing the character of the period. Take a walk or bicycle ride through the splendor of Spanish moss and the tranquility of Georgian manors. The Audubon Zoological Gardens, one of the country's richest collections of exotic wildlife, is definitely worth a visit.

The Audubon Institute also operates the Aquarium of the Americas, home to tropical creatures from the Amazon basin, spotted moray eels and hawksbill turtles in a walk-through Caribbean reef tube. Hundreds of Gulf species call an oil platform home, complete with 14ft (4m) high windows.

New Orleans is also the Voodoo capital of the U.S. So whether you want to learn how to cast a spell or have one removed, you may want to drop by the Historic Voodoo Museum or the Voodoo Spiritual Temple.

"The City that Care Forgot" offers a delightful array of tastes, sounds and sensations that you will rarely find aside from a few places in the Caribbean. Plan to come and spend a few days, and let the spirits carry you where they will!
