Mobile

Founded in 1702 as the original capital of the Louisiana Territory and nestled on the beautiful Gulf of Mexico, few other cities can boast such a rich history and prime location. Visitors marvel at the area’s sheer beauty, modern architecture, amazing museums, and famous seafood creations. Historical and cultural attractions include the USS Alabama Battleship Memorial Park, Bellingrath Gardens and Home, Oakleigh Historic House Museum, Bragg Mitchell Mansion, the Gulf Coast Exploreum, and Fort Conde, its official visitor center. Mobile is not only the home of the first-known Mardi Gras celebration in 1703 (yes, even before New Orleans), but also the modern American's family Mardi Gras delighting 200,000+ visitors annually from around town and across the nation. This magnificent celebration lasts for nearly two weeks and culminates on Fat Tuesday, the day before Lent. Mobile is just an hour's drive from Alabama's beautiful Gulf Coast beaches. www.mobile.org
