Welcome to New Orleans

The Rebirth of New Orleans, Louisiana!

The most celebrated and historic core of this Louisiana city — including the Faubourg Marigny, French Quarter, Central Business District, Warehouse and Arts District, Magazine Street, Garden District, Audubon Park and Zoo and St. Charles Avenue — remains both physically and spiritually intact and is thriving. The cultural riches, sensual indulgences and unparalleled service that define the New Orleans experience continue to flourish, as they have for centuries. The city is open, as historically and culturally rich and charming as ever, and eager to welcome visitors again.

With more than 28,000 hotel rooms, famed restaurants, and vibrant music clubs, New Orleans attracts and accommodates more than 10 million people each year. In February 2006, the 150th anniversary of Mardi Gras was a coming-out party for the city, which has since enjoyed equally historic festivals, sporting and cultural events, conventions and meetings. It’s no surprise that the New York Times has named New Orleans the “Comeback of the Year” and both Orbitz and Travel + Leisure chose it as one of the top destinations of 2007
