New Orleans, with its famous jazz scene, vibrant culture and pretty French Quarter, has to be the first port of call for a trip through this state. But beyond New Orleans, Louisiana has much to offer. Visit Baton Rouge, the state capital, and explore its many museums, parks and historical landmarks. Or head down to Lafayette, the heart of Cajun country, for some authentic food and more great music. Lovers of the great outdoors can tour the sprawling swamps (see how many alligators you can spot) and bayous, or lounge on the beaches of the Gulf Coast.
