The Garden District
The Garden District, which encompasses the area from Magazine Street to St. Charles Avenue and from Jackson Avenue to Louisiana Avenue, was primarily developed between the years of 1840 and 1900. It has been beautifully preserved and is considered to be among the most impressive collections of historic mansions in the South. The foliage is breathtaking and has been attributed to a thick layer of nutrient-rich alluvial silt being deposited on the land by a flood in 1816. Walking tours of this historic district are offered frequently.

One of New Orleans first streets when the city was planned in the early 1700's, this street was named after the French ruling dynasty of the time, the Bourbons (Louis XIV was a Bourbon). It was originally a residential street with local shopping, until a commercial expansion in the 20th century. It has since expanded further to cater to tourists with shopping, restaurants, bars, and strip clubs. There are also some sightseeing attractions, such as unique architecture.
