Attractions
Soak in the atmosphere of Jackson Square, which is often referred to as the heart and soul of the French Quarter. Don't neglect a visit to the Ogden Museum of Southern Art, or the Louisiana State Museum at the Cabildo. A visit to above ground cemeteries such as Lafayette Cemetery and St. Louis Cemetery No. 1 are also recommended. For a bit more excitement, experience the Bourbon Street nightlife in the historic French Quarter.
Hints and tips
Thanks to the humid climate of New Orleans, it is advisable to pack breathable fabrics and lightweight clothing. It rains a lot here too, so packing a waterproof jacket or umbrella is a must. Bourbon Street hotels tend to be noisy and expensive, so it is often better to opt for the Arts District, or Garden District when booking a hotel.
