Description
New Orleans, one of America’s most unique cities, is celebrated for its multilingual heritage, its roots in jazz music and of course the world famous Mardi Gras. The Vieux Carré, or French Quarter, is the oldest neighborhood in New Orleans with 85 blocks designated as a National Historic Landmark. On any day the French Quarter is alive with a steady flow of tourists enjoying the crowded streets, the clip-clop sounds of hores-drawn carriages, cathedral bells, haunting blues from Bourbon Street, and smells of Creole and Cajun cooking in the air.
Holding on to European tradition, the Cathedral-Basilica of St. Louis dominates the center of town. Facing the French Quarter’s Jackson Square and the Mississippi River, the church ranks as the oldest continual operating Roman Catholic cathedral in America.
