These 7 Small Towns In Louisiana Honor Christmas In The Most Magical Way

While Monroe may not be considered a small town, there’s one holiday attraction that honors Christmas in the most magical way, and it’s worth a road trip. The Chennault Aviation & Military Museum decorates five trees, one of every branch of the military, and encourages the community to come and bring pictures and mementos to decorate the trees.

This tiny town is home to one of the greatest drive-thru light displays in the state, and that’s Candy Cane Lane. Visitors can drive through a mile-long display of thousands of lights and displays that the entire family will love.

Natchitoches isn’t a small town, but it’s hard to mention Christmas in Louisiana and not mention Natchitoches.
