Why it is worth visiting New Orleans
Upon arriving in New Orleans, you’ll understand why the city
is called “The Big Easy”, the character of the city is a wonderful mix
of American culture, French atmosphere and blues rhythms.
The starting point to visit New Orleans is without doubt the French Quarter, the old neighborhood which was focused after the original French population in 1803 after Louisiana was ceded to the United States by Napoleon.
The days go slow and sluggish, especially in hot and sultry summer days, but with the sunset, the streets fill with people, music and fun, especially on weekends when the alcohol flows freely.
Walking through the French Quarter, you can admire the colonial-style houses, with the characteristic iron balconies, the Creolo residences, jazz cafes, voodoo and folklore shops. Do not forget that New Orleans is a city a little magic, in beautiful Jackson Square it is natural to find in front of the St Louis Cathedral dozens of banquets with ladies who read hands, clean the aura and curse your enemies

Do not miss the monumental St. Louis Cemetery No. 1 (best in group or with a guide for safety) where the tomb of Marie Laveau is, the most powerful voodoo queen, and hundreds of tombs decorated with gifts and symbols of Santeria.
