The French Quarter in New Orleans is also a large area. There are many things to visit here. There are also some very interesting small designs in the French Quarter, with things of different specifications designed according to the layout here. I really like the appearance here.

The most famous Jackson Square and St. Louis Cathedral in the city center, various grassroots artists on Bourbon Street in the French Quarter, take a vintage tram to the Garden District, and admire the mansions on the roadside

The city park is very big and beautiful. There are many old trees with a very long history and ponds. It feels like being in the suburbs and you don’t feel like you are in a big American city.

It was a great start to New Orleans, there is so much great music. We started out at one place and then found one after another. During this time we talked to artists in the alleys and watched buskers perform and street vendors slowly appear after 11. It was a particularly enjoyable night, being a busy Wednesday night, not as crazy as I heard Friday/Saturday nights are.

This street is so fun to visit. Although it is not very big, the atmosphere is very good. There are many galleries and small shops selling a variety of selected items on this street. It feels pretty good.

There are many traditional funeral customs in New Orleans on YouTube, including the characteristics of the above-ground tombs, which are very related to the geographical environment and weather. The cemetery was recently under repair and is not open to the public, but after walking around it, the basic shape is similar.

It is magnificent, free to enter and exit, surrounded by many shops and restaurants, and only a three-minute walk to the Mississippi River...
