Birthplace of jazz
Bourbon Street was famous for its jazz clubs, but
it’s mostly been given over to alcohol-fueled revelry.
Buskers show off and there’s electricity in its bawdy
nature, but for a taste of local musicianship visit
Frenchman’s Street. You can have a drink and plate
of food while listening to band after band churn
out all musical genres. There’s also a night market
worth checking out.
Safety
NOLA has a reputation as a rough place, going
back to its origins as a major port with pirates
and warships going in and out. The fact that the
North American version of the mafia originated
there didn’t enhance its safety rating. But, like most
places, if you’re smart, practice good situational
awareness, keep to the main areas and don’t
participate in illegal activities, you’ll be fine.
