Garden District

If downtown New Orleans is raucous, bubbling excitement, uptown is the polar opposite – stately, refined, drenched in a palette of leaf green and pale marble.  The Garden District is the most famous of the uptown neighbourhoods, and is renowned for its sprawling mansions and oak-shaded boulevards.  You can explore it on foot or via streetcar, and check out celebrity homes and heritage buildings, as well as attractions like Lafayette Cemetery and Commander’s Palace Restaurant.
