A Trip to Cajun Country- Suggestions

[louielouie2000]

I've been to Southern Louisiana a couple of times this year alone. If you're going into New Orleans specifically, just make sure not to spend all your time in the French Quarter. It's fabulous, don't get me wrong, but there's a LOT more to New Orleans than just that one section. I personally love the Garden District. St Charles Ave is fabulous, as is Magazine St. Both have amazing architecture, delicious restaurants, and great unique shopping (especially Magazine St). I also just love wandering around the residential streets in the Garden District... some of the best architecture in the nation! And when you are in the French Quarter, keep in mind there is SO much more to it than Bourbon St.
