| When you make a list of all the unique things Louisiana has to offer visitors, you quickly see the long-lasting influences of our French, Spanish and African ancestry. In fact, there’s not another state, save Hawaii, that has preserved its past with a living history that can be experienced each and every day through the lives of its local population. Our own style of architecture --wrought iron balconies and port coheres of the French Quarter, plantation homes along the Mississippi River and raised cottages found through out Cajun Country are being built and rebuilt to this very day. Walk into any fourth or fifth generation Louisiana home and you’re sure to find gumbo on the stove, pecan pie in the fridge, home-grown tomatoes on a window sill, or some variation of uniquely Cajun and Creole foods that date back to the days of Evangeline. Our music, too has a sound and a story all its own. A wailful mix of West Indies voodoo chants, African tribal drums and Nova Scotian fiddles that tell tales of loves and lives lost and a new world found. Louisiana. As rare as an oyster’s perfect pearl, as raw as a gator’s hide, as mysterious as the fog that blankets the bayous, as illusive as the aroma of jasmine on a hot summer night. Louisiana. Custom-made. Just for you. |
