The Cabildo was the site of the signing of the Louisiana Purchase transfer, and it is now one of the state’s most popular museums. If you want to immerse yourself in the history of Louisiana, then don’t miss this informative and entertaining attraction.

It’s the only authentic po’boy (hollowed-out bread packed with anything edible) spot in the French Quarter. Stop by and you can order a po’boy filled with fried shrimp, roast beef, roast pork, crawfish, soft-shell crab. Need I say more?
