New Orleans train garden

Tiny historical streetcars wind through a miniature scale version of Crescent City in the 1,300-acre City Park. This impressive model train experience features a quarter-mile of track carrying 1/22-scale streetcars and freight trains similar to those that wound through Crescent City a century ago. The landscape the trains journey through was designed by artist Paul Busse, who crafted the buildings and iconic sights of New Orleans from organic, natural, biodegradable materials. Information is provided on landmarks and neighborhoods along the route.

One of the most haunted houses in America

The Myrtles Plantation in St. Francisville should be avoided by anyone with an overactive imagination. The home, dubbed “one of America’s most haunted”, has a true and tragic history. A slave called Chloe who worked on the plantation was banished from the main house for a minor infraction and decided to cure two of the owner’s grandchildren who had fallen ill in a bid to return. She baked Oleander leaves into a cake, but instead of curing the children it poisoned them and their mother. Chloe was hung from a tree in the yard, then thrown into the Mississippi River with bricks to weigh down her body. The legend surrounding the house grew when the children of a number of subsequent owners died from various illnesses. Those brave enough can book a stay at the Myrtles Plantation, which now operates as a bed and breakfast.

Lake Peigneur

This deep saltwater lake near the Gulf of Mexico was once a shallow freshwater lake. Originally just 11ft deep, it was a popular fishing and recreation spot. Then on the morning of November 20, 1980, a drilling crew accidentally drilled through the ceiling of the Diamond Crystal salt mine below, resulting in barges, big-rig trucks, houses, 65 acres of land and a Texaco oil rig being flushed down the enormous vortex it created. At the same time, 55 salt mine workers hundreds of feet below were trying to escape as water poured into the mine. Miraculously, there were no fatalities or serious human injuries that day, but the freshwater lake became permanently salinated with devastating effects on the ecosystem.

Jungle Gardens of New Iberia

Tabasco in New Iberia

The Avery Island Tabasco Museum and Factory celebrates the successful efforts of one family to keep the world supplied with the iconic hot sauce over a 150-year period. The factory is set on an island made of salt and completely surrounded by bayous. The fields on this unusual geological formation produce a unique red pepper that’s featured in the hot sauce.
