Jackson Square, New Orleans, Louisiana

 

Downtown in the French Quarter, Jackson Square is the centerpiece of New Orleans. Here is a description from Wikipedia: Jackson Square (New Orleans):

Jackson Square is a historic park in the French Quarter of New Orleans, Louisiana. It was declared a National Historic Landmark in 1960, for its central role in the city's history, and as the site where in 1803 Louisiana was made United States territory pursuant to the Louisiana Purchase. In 2012 the American Planning Association designated Jackson Square as one of the Great Public Spaces in the United States.

We enjoyed a horse-drawn carriage ride around the city.
