Facts about New Orleans, Louisiana

New Orleans is a city that defines itself by its quirkiness. From one-of-a-kind Mardi Gras traditions to voodoo superstitions, the city’s past and present is full of unusual customs you won’t find anywhere else. You probably know all about the usual New Orleans tourist attractions (you’ll no doubt find time to stumble down Bourbon Street and hop on an open-air streetcar). New Orleans’ multifaceted history lent the iconic French Quarter a slew of architectural influences. Although the city was founded by the French, much of the present-day Quarter was built and designed during a period of Spanish rule – so the dominating architectural themes are Spanish. The St. Louis Cathedral is perhaps the most recognizable landmark in the Crescent City; it’s the pinnacle of New Orleans sightseeing. The cathedral marks the historic Jackson Square, and its steeples reach regally above the surrounding houses, antique shops, and cafes that make up the French Quarter. Starting in the earliest days of the Crescent City’s development, people from all walks of life came together within the Cathedral, which is open to the public to this day.

You know about catching beads from balconies and passing floats. Maybe you already picked up a costume, wig and mask to help you blend in like a local on parade days. But you may not have known about the elaborate Mardi Gras Balls thrown every year to honor the royalty of the Mardi Gras parades. These elaborate parties take place after the major parades, which are put on by parade krewes. Traditionally, the King and Queen of each krewe were a closely guarded secret until the grand reveal during the ball. The balls used to be invitation only, but these days many of them are open to the public and it is no secret that jazz originated in the Crescent City, and that this town has subsequently produced some of the most iconic jazz musicians and venues of all time. When you think “jazz,” you probably start hearing saxophones, pianos, and the double bass thumping along in your head. But many claim that jazz was born not with a horn, but with drums.
