This gym is truly the largest and top notch gym out there. This gym sports 1000 pieces of equipment which makes it convenient to workout cause you always have a choice of your favorite machines. I have been to such a large and super nice gym. This is a two story gym with about 20 or 30 tennis courts including several indoor tennis courts with several indoor racket ball courts. It also possesses several indoor basketball courts as well as a boxing ring and three pools. Not to mention the owner was a mr America and is one of the best human beings I have ever met. He is in his 70’s and still opens his own gym at 3 am every morning. He is a man of great faith and it shows in his love and generosity. If you are passing through the area and are looking for a great gym that sells day passes this is the place for you. Truly an awesome gym!!!!!!

We were led to grounds of St John’s Cathedral in our downtown Lafayette scavenger hunt. We happened to see the cathedral the day before Easter. Unbelievably beautiful!

Get a taste of life for the 18th-century Acadian settlers in this 23-acre village with meticulously recreated period homes, costumed staff demonstrating arts and crafts and a restaurant serving Cajun and Creole food.

One of the earliest settlements along the banks of the Bayou Vermilion. Two hundred years ago! Very historic and the interpreters are wonderful. They are in the time period wardrobe and give detailed history of life and crafts of the time period 1765 to 1890. We were totally impressed with this historic village! Spend as much time as you have in this place.

Step back in time to a small 19th-century Cajun bayou community, which includes genuine Cajun homes relocated and combined with recreated period buildings and a Native American museum.
Reviewed By sodabear2003 - DeRidder, United States
This is a very pretty place to visit, it is a step back in time. when we visited they had a wedding taking place, but you could still visit all the buildings except 2 where the wedding party was. charming, ducks, turtles, and fish are in the ponds and they have little food machine where you can feed all the animals. The store has all kinds of stuff you can buy and the staff is very helpful.

Downtown Lafayette so it's within walking distance of parking and other places to visit. Admission prices are reasonable, staff is very friendly and helpful. Lot's of hands on activities and interesting exhibits. Loved the Acadiana 360 virtual reality experience and the big screen that put you in the picture (forgot what the exhibit was called). A must do when in downtown Lafayette.
