The Garden District is one of New Orleans' oldest and most beautiful areas. If you come to Mardi Gras, be sure to treat yourself to a walking tour of the tremendous properties which have survived since prior to the Civil War. You'll go back into time and see what Old New Orleans looked like. Lavish mansions, which were spoke of in history books, are here for your viewing pleasure.

Experience a ride into the past. The St. Charles Avenue Streetcar is one of the oldest continuously operated systems of its kind in the world. This antique form of transportation will take you directly into the heart of the Garden District. Plan to spend an afternoon exploring this gracious neighborhood.
