2025 Jefferson Parish Travel Guide: Must-see attractions, popular food, hotels, transportation routes (updated in July)

Nola Kitchen is an authentic American restaurant Located in the alley of Exit 2 of Shandao Temple MRT Station, a 3-minute walk away When you arrive at Nola Kitchen, you will be amazed by its garden landscaping. There are a lot of green plants and a super exaggerated sand pit! The whole place has a tropical island holiday atmosphere and is super photogenic! Restaurants can choose outdoor and indoor seating when positioning Although there is no air conditioning outdoors, if it is a gentle breeze at night and paired with string lights, it is super chill So you can make your choice according to your preference. The interior decoration is more industrial style. The distance between the tables is very large and very comfortable! The food tastes great! I highly recommend trying their famous maple pancake fried chicken The sweet maple syrup and the crispy fried chicken go together amazingly! We also recommend the signature dessert, the beignets This is a traditional snack that originated in France but flourished in New Orleans. The taste is a bit between bread and cake, and a bit like donuts. You can try it! In addition, there is a buy one get one free beer happy hour all day long! Don’t drink too much! The average consumption per person is about NT$700~1000 I highly recommend you to come and try the authentic American cuisine and delicious maple pancake fried chicken!! Address: No. 2, Linsen South Road, Zhongzheng District, Taipei City #Taipei Attractions #Taipei Food

The mother river of the United States 🇺🇸 - the Mississippi River. "Young and energetic, delicate and elegant" is how the famous writer Mark Twain described the Mississippi River. Mississippi River cruise can be roughly divided into three sections. Upstream ➡️ from São Paulo to St. Louis, the scenery here is extremely beautiful. Midstream ➡️ Memphis and St. Louis, not many voyages. Downstream ➡️ New Orleans and Memphis, the most popular choice. Take special photos 📷. No matter whose pen it is, this river is the ideal river of people. The scenery is pleasant, relax your mood, and the air is fresh. This is also the direction of Mark Twain's heart.

Mark Twain called the exterior of the Old Louisiana State Capitol “medieval” and suggested it be blown up after it had been occupied by Union troops for 20 years. Instead, this castle on the banks of the Mississippi River underwent a restoration in 1982. The renovation included a marvelous cast iron staircase that spirals towards an umbrella of stained glass. This old capitol is now the Museum of Political History. It includes an exhibit on Huey Long and the gun used to kill him in 1935 inside the current state capitol.
