The Pelican State
A rare mixture of Spanish, French, African and Acadian cultures has shaped Louisiana into one of the most fascinating states in America. The history, music, cuisine, architecture and distinct backgrounds make up all the flavorful nuances of the Pelican State.
The Office of Tourism welcomes Louisiana visitors to enjoy any or all of its distinct travel regions. A sportsman's paradise, recreation opportunities vary from hiking, boating, hunting and fishing to the Audubon Gold Trail. Coastal gaming and riverboat tours are part of Louisiana's glitz and glamour. Enjoy the state's historic Mississippi River Road plantation mansions or take in some of the state's two dozen parks and national historic sites. For sightseers, Louisiana offers 18 national and state scenic byways, a great way to experience all five of the state's travel regions.
