<\/p>\n

New Orleans is known for its southern style food and creole cuisine. You will most likely find yourself scarfing down a big bowl of Gumbo<\/a> or Jambalaya<\/a>. If you haven’t already tried their traditional sandwiches, they’re a must! These sandwiches known as Po-Boys<\/a> are overstuffed with tasty goodness! For dessert, beignets<\/a> are the way to go! There is no better way to cleanse your palette then with this New Orleans staple.<\/p>\n

After you’ve finished your meal, get ready to explore historical landmarks. New Orleans is filled with history, so sightseeing is a must! Start with the French Quarter<\/a>, home to jazz music<\/a>, shopping and more! This part of New Orleans is popular among tourists. While you\u2019re in French Quarter, mosey on over to Bourbon Street, one of the most famous streets in the world, well-known for its nightlife, entertainment and restaurants! Not only is this street the entertainment capital of New Orleans, but it’s also where the famous Mardi Gras takes place!<\/p>\n

Mardi Gras <\/a>is a season of fun! Or, as New Orleans calls it, carnival season! This takes place usually February through March.\u00a0 Mardi Gras has been a part of New Orleans for quite some time. In fact, organizations known as Krewes put together the entire event. They dress up in costumes and recreate a specific subject. There is music, food, and tons of fun! (Not to mention beads galore.) This started in New Orleans when a member dressed up as Santa decided to throw gifts to the people. Believe it or not that\u2019s how throwing beads were born. New Orleans knows how to have good time!<\/p>\n

New Orleans has plenty of things to keep the little ones busy. How about taking them to the Audubon Aquarium<\/a>? It is home to more than 15,000 sea creatures! An absolute must for the kids. After you\u2019re finished exploring sea animals, head on over to the Louisiana children\u2019s museum. You can teach the kiddos about New Orleans while having fun! There are many things to keep them entertained in New Orleans.<\/p>\n\n
