The festivals, the restaurants and the night life are a few of the main attractions in New Orleans, and there’s always the French Quarter, established by the French in 1718, that is a must go place. Bourbon Street is where the upscale lounges and historic restaurants and jazz clubs are to be found. No wonder the first opera in North America was performed in New Orleans!
