Acadian Village and Tropical Gardens; Lafayette, Louisiana, United States; V-L-1; On Mouton Road, just south of La. 342. A number of Acadian dwellings, churches and other antebellum buildings have been brought together here to represent an early "Cajun" bayou village. A footpath leads beside a sleepy bayou past the historic structures and through the Around the World Tropical Gardens. A giftshop offers Cajun crafts as well as books on the Acadians.
