A thriving gulf and river port, New Orleans preserves the flavor of the Old South, with a distinctly French accent. It is famed for its filigree wrought-iron balconied Vieux Carré (French Quarter), home of Mardi Gras celebrations that herald the beginning of Lent. New Orleans is known not only as a festival city in itself but as the gateway to America's Riviera: the Gulf Coast. This coastal area is a potpourri of Spanish and French, Cajun and Creole, Jazz and Dixieland. In short, it is a region of rich cultural diversity. All Amtrak service in New Orleans is in the Union Passenger Terminal, virtually next door to the Louisiana Superdome.
