5. Beguiling history and architecture is on full display.

Perspectives of the past come alive at the Vermilionville historic village (above) and on walking tours that stop at such sites as the circa-1800 Alexandre Mouton House and the Cathedral of St. John the Evangelist (below, right). Diverse permanent collections at the Hilliard Art Museum (below, left) on the University of Louisiana at Lafayette campus also tell stories of bygone eras.
