Lk Pontchartrain Cswy Review

Walking by the lake, some things here are also very unique, there are many small things to enjoy, but also can see the natural scenery is more abundant a place, here to visit the tourists are very many oh.

Lake Ponchatreen is the second largest lagoon in the United States, and a road bridge has been built on it, running through the north and south of the lake, 21 miles long, and one of the longest sea-crossing (lake) bridges in the world, known as the Lake Ponchatreen causeway. It takes about half an hour to drive from one end of the bridge to the other, and the view from the bridge is beautiful, especially at sunset. From New Orleans, it is free to cross the bridge, but it costs 5 knives (not 3 knives as other reviews say), especially recommended to the Fontainebleau State Park at the southern end of the bridge, and you can overlook the causeway by the lake of the park.

It is very suitable for self-driving tours. Come to New Orleans to rent a car here to drive. You can experience a different self-driving feeling and enjoy the scenery along the way. This is a speed limit on the bridge, and the one-way charge on the bridge is still great.

The bridge originally charged a toll in both directions, but in May 1999, in order to ease traffic jams, it was changed to a one-way toll of $3. In August 2005, after Hurricane Katrina, the bridge was damaged, but almost all of the damage was done on the older bridge 1, and the foundation of the bridge remained intact. As the hurricane destroyed Interstate 10, Lake Ponchatreen causeway became the main access point for rescue teams to New Orleans. Iconic buildings, to see!

If you like to drive up to the bridge, it is definitely worth your visit. It is one of the longest bridges in the world, about 30 miles. At one point you can't even see the land.

You can see the big lake. The lakeside path is suitable for cycling and running. Anyway, no one looks at the lake view. The white sails are a little bit tasteful. Foreigners are the most enjoyable. There are many yachts here.
