New Orleans has a culture all its own. The French Quarter's streets are lined with balconied buildings, and live jazz spills out of the clubs on Frenchmen Street most nights.

The food is a big reason to visit: gumbo, jambalaya, po' boys and beignets with coffee at the riverside cafes. Mardi Gras brings parades in the weeks before Lent.
