The Garden District in New Orleans, Louisiana
This US place’s Garden District includes streets lined with Victorian-style homes, 19th-century mansions, colorful cottages, and its well-known oak trees.
But while these mansions and the lavish landscaping around them are a main tourist attraction in the Garden District, there are also other must-see places. Uptown, New Orleans, is worth exploring for its restaurants, boutiques, and carriage rides.
The atmosphere here differs significantly from the hustle and bustle of the French Quarter, which most people tend to flock towards. Even on its busiest days, the neighborhood’s big, elegant mansions invoke a quiet reverence among those who visit them.
Whatever your plans are while here, make sure to set aside some time to wander around and admire the architecture and the exquisite details that make each mansion remarkable. And remember also to explore one of the famous New Orleans above-ground cemeteries.
