Tired of the same old tourist traps? Whether you're a visitor or a local looking for something different, let Louisiana Off the Beaten Path show you the Pelican State you never knew existed. Grab a quick bite (to eat) and a peek at the baby vampire bats at the Transylvania General Store; ride over a pirate pistol-adorned bridge to swashbuckler Jean Lafitte's stomping grounds; or walk through a colorful garden of good and evil in the Chauvin Sculpture Garden. So if you've "been there, done that" one too many times, get off the main road and venture Off the Beaten Path.
