It&#8217;s a hot spot for round-the-clock nightlife, a thriving live-music scene, and spicy cuisine. The city is a cultural melting pot and a must-see for any traveler. The famous Mardi Gras festival, a late-winter carnival, is a popular event in the city, and the colourful costumed parades and street parties that mark this event are unforgettable.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The French and Spanish colonists established a trading hub for their goods in New Orleans, and it served as the capital until 1849. The city was once the capital of Louisiana, and during the Reconstruction period it served as the state&#8217;s capital. As the French departed the region, the city became an important commercial center, serving as an entry and exit point to the rest of the world. Today, it&#8217;s a vibrant and diverse city with something for everyone.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Before the American Revolution, New Orleans was a French colony, and it was inhabited by the Cajuns, Indians, and Frenchmen. Before that, there were few permanent white settlers in the region. In 1718, a Frenchman named Jean-Baptiste Le Moyne founded Nouvelle-Orleans. In 1822, Hurricane Katrina wiped out much of the city, but the city re-opened in the grid pattern that makes it the French Quarter we know today.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The French colonial era was the most prosperous period for the city. The French ruled over New Orleans, and it was the city of choice for the French. There were many slaves who lived there and a few were able to escape yellow fever. During this time, there were few permanent white settlers, but by 1718, the king established Nouvelle-Orleans. This small town was destroyed by Hurricane 1722, and it was rebuilt with a grid-like pattern that would be recognized even today.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The Cajun alphabet is the language of Cajun people and is also found in New Orleans. Each letter in the alphabet is a symbol of the city, and the ebony and orange blossom trees are a beautiful sight to behold. In addition to its cultural and historical significance, the city&#8217;s political history is an excellent reason to visit New Orleans. So many local artists have made their creations in New-Orleans, and it&#8217;s impossible to miss the uniqueness of the city.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>If you&#8217;re looking for an original gift, consider a local artifact. The area is rich in history and culture, and you can enjoy the great atmosphere and great cuisine. You can even buy local art souvenirs while you&#8217;re in New Orleans. The city is the perfect place to purchase beautiful gifts for loved ones. There are plenty of great art galleries and other places to buy unique items. For unique gifts, you can visit one of the galleries and museums.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Located on the Mississippi River, close to the Gulf of Mexico, New Orleans is the perfect place to start your next vacation.
