The French Quarter

There’s no place that’s more perfect for long scenic walks then New Orleans’ French Quarter. The historic streets and buildings throughout the French Quarter are remarkably preserved. Almost anywhere you look is a visual delight. Browse the many art galleries along Royal Street then make your way down past the St. Louis Cathedral, where you’ll see paintings by local artists on display, on your way to Jackson Square. Walking though Jackson Square is like walking through history. The perfectly landscaped park is filled with willows and oozes with southern charm. Pass by the French Market and head down to the Mississippi. The Moonwalk brings you right up against Old Muddy. You may stumble upon some street performers singing the blues on your way to Woldenberg Riverfront Park. Take a stroll through the 20 acres of lush greenery or sit, relax, and watch the riverboats glide across the Mississippi from one of the many benches throughout the park. No matter where you go in the French Quarter you’ll feel like you are a million miles from your busy life back home.
