When Hurricane Katrina hit the Louisiana and Mississippi Area, not many were prepared for the destruction it was about to unleash. Although government agencies were able to provide sufficient timely information, no one actually thought that the levees that were keeping the area from getting flooded would become breached. The unrelenting hurricane has led to a number of people to move to safer grounds. One such place where they found refuge was Picayune.
Picayune, named after the Spanish coin, is located about 45 miles from New Orleans. Although it might appear to be a relatively small city, it is actually considered to be the largest one in the Pearl River County in Mississippi. It currently houses the Crosby Arboretum which is known for featuring more than 300 species of trees and shrubs.
Picayune is also known for being the place where one can find the Frostop, a chain of fast food restaurant that features an oversized root beer mug of the same name as an outdoor signage. Of course, there is also the Stennis Space Center, which is NASA’s facility for testing rockets.
If you would are thinking of taking in everything that Picayune has to offer, your best move would be to book yourself in any of the hotels in Picayune MS. One such hotel that you would definitely enjoy is the Heritage Inn.
