Louisiana is one of our favorite states. We go back again and again and are always surprised by how much we missed in the last times we visited. The state always has new things to offer and excite us. Louisiana is one of those places we visit that always feels like a non-stop party while still managing to feel warm and comfortably like home. Here is The Constant Rambler list of 5 Must-see Attractions in Louisiana.
Transport yourself back to a simpler time with a visit to the Rural Life Museum in Baton Rouge, LA. This fantastic museum is located on the 450 acre property of the Burden Museum and Gardens and provides an in-depth view on what life was like for 18th and 19th century Louisianans. Taking a trip there was like stepping back in time and it’s an absolute must visit for any history or antique buff.
What happens when you combine a love of smoked meats and old world delis? You get City Pork in Baton Rouge, LA. If you love pork, or eating, as much as I do, you’d better find a way to make it here quick!
Tucked away in the little town of Darrow, Louisiana is a gem of a place called The Houmas House Plantation and Gardens. Known as the “crown jewel of Louisiana’s river road” it is a property that is steeped in historical significance, and has ben restored to reflect the splendor that Southern Plantation homes have long been associated with. Taking a tour of the Houmas House Plantation while walking through this fairy tale setting with my dog at my side and an ice cold drink in my hand was absolutely blissful.
