A must-visit attraction when in New Orleans is the family-friendly Audubon Butterfly Garden and Insectarium. Located on the first floor of the U.S. Custom House on Canal Street, the Audubon Butterfly Garden and Insectarium is said to be the largest museum dedicated to insects in North America. Covering an area of 23,000 square feet, the Audubon Butterfly Garden and Insectarium offers visitors an up close and personal look at a variety of fascinating insects, as well as a chance for them to learn more about prehistoric and modern insects and their contributions to the world. The Butterflies in Flight exhibit is a stunning free-flight exhibit in an Asian-inspired garden. For visitors who are a little adventurous when it comes to selection dining options, a visit to Bug Appétit is a must. Here they will not only get to see chefs incorporating insects into dishes, they also get to taste these dishes once made!

Muslim visitors to the Audubon Butterfly Garden and Insectarium will not be able to find prayer facilities. They will therefore have to visit one of the many mosques in the city of New Orleans. When needed, they could ask to be directed to the closest mosque in the area. Some mosques in New Orleans include the New Orleans Masjid Al-Islam, the Islamic Center of New Orleans, Muhammad Mosque and Masjid ur-Rahim.
Those looking to dine on more normal food than the dishes served at Bug Appétit, could dine at the Tiny Termite Café; where they will be able to find a selection of delicious treats, and dine on ‘living’ tables which have real insects in the middle. Since the food served here will not be Halal certified, Muslim tourists can dine on the vegetarian and seafood options available. There are also quite a few Halal restaurants in New Orleans for those looking specifically for Halal certified food.
