A national landmark celebrating the development of music in America, Preservation Hall specifically strives to "to protect and honor New Orleans Jazz." It may not look like much at first glance, and those bench seats are anything but comfortable, but Preservation Hall is Mecca for jazz fans interested in traditional, New Orleans style jazz. Folks start lining up early to get a seat - the trick to avoid the line is to get there either just as the doors open or later in the evening. This is one of your must-sees when you come to town. And it's one of the few family-friendly jazz joints in town. There's no bar and please leave your go-cups at the door.
