NEW ORLEANS

New Orleans is known for its rich blend of cultures—French, African, Spanish, and Caribbean—which shapes its food, music, and traditions. It’s the birthplace of jazz and famous for lively festivals like Mardi Gras, with parades, music, and street celebrations. The city’s historic French Quarter, distinctive Creole cuisine, and location along the Mississippi River also make it particularly unique.
