Tired of the same old tourist traps?
Whether you're a visitor or a local looking for something different, Louisiana Off the Beaten Path shows you the Pelican State with new perspectives on timeless destinations and introduces you to those you never knew existed.

• Ride over a pirate pistol-adorned bridge to swashbuckler Jean Lafitte's stomping grounds.
• Stop and smell the roses at the country's largest rose garden, the American Rose Center in Shreveport.
• Check out "America's Most Haunted City" and explore the historic cemeteries of New Orleans--if you dare!
