About Louisiana

Listen to live jazz in New Orleans. Sample spicy boiled crawfish in Lafayette. Fish Toledo Bend. Go birdwatching in Kisatchie. Hit blackjack in Shreveport. All the senses reach their potential in Louisiana.

Louisiana has such a rich history that, no matter where you are, there’s no telling what might have happened in that very location over the centuries that led up to the present. But many locations do have histories that are very well known, and they’re worth a visit. The Edgar Degas House in New Orleans, for example, is the only of the master artist’s many residences that is opened to the public and is where Degas created at least 17 works of art. The Kate Chopin House in Cloutierville was built in the early 19th century and is visted by literary buffs interested in seeing the domicile of the acclaimed author of The Awakening. And the many Louisiana libraries, including the State Library of Louisiana in Baton Rouge, offer a fascinating and in-depth view of our state’s history.
