New Orleans is the most celebrated city of the American South, and the largest city in Louisiana, as well as the state’s top visitor destination. The city has a reputation for historical roots, hot and muggy weather, great food, great music, and great times. Despite being hit hard by Hurricane Katrina in late 2005, New Orleans is still the tourist hot-spot it always has been. Jazz music still rules the city’s streets and there’s still a bit of Mardi Gras all year round.
