The Mississippi River defines the setting of Gonzales — its alluvial plain has fostered a low, spread-out city between Baton Rouge and New Orleans. In Ascension Parish, Gonzales lies on the busy Interstate 10 corridor, where residential growth, services and industry share the landscape with drainage canals and flat, humid lowlands. Food is central to local identity: the city calls itself the Jambalaya Capital of the World, and the annual Jambalaya Festival celebrates the Louisiana rice dish.
