“The Big Easy,” as the city is famously called, is a favorite event among racers, as well as spectators. With strong influences from diverse places like France, Africa and the Caribbean Islands, New Orleans is filled with an endless variety of things to discover and explore. There are many things to do in New Orleans including hanging out in the popular French Quarter or checking out the Audubon Zoo, Audubon Aquarium of the Americas or National WWII Museum. Additionally, visitors can try their luck at Harrah's Casino. Visitors can sample delectable cuisine at famous restaurants like Antoine’s and Acme Oyster House, or venture to a more casual spot like Café Du Monde or Ralph’s on the Park. Music is everywhere in New Orleans, but some of the best venues to soak in some jazz, zydeco or blues are the Spotted Cat, House of Blues and Preservation Hall. Finally, there is a tour option for everyone; whether you are a history buff or paranormal thrill-seeker, these guided excursions offer visitors of all interests a chance to learn about the city’s intriguing past.
