With the hits of hurricanes Katrina and Rita, New Orleans is, rebuilding. However, the areas of interest to tourists such as the French Quarter, the shopping district on Magazine, and Downtown are open for business as these areas are naturally on higher ground and therefore sustained less damage. Water, air and land tests in these areas have also proven that it is safe. New Orleans is still a destination that should be considered and sought after. The spirit in the city is unlike ever before. This spirit teamed with its reknown reputation for being fun and free makes it a great place to visit.
Practically everything in New Orleans is different and special. It's a city that never ceases to amaze its visitors as well as its inhabitants.
