New Orleans - Garden District

The Garden District, a prosperous residential area, lies south-west of the Pontchartrain Expressway. It is best to travel here on the St Charles Streetcar, a survivor of New Orleans' tram system, getting out at Charles Street/First Avenue (Stop 14). On First Street, Camp Street and Prytania Street there are many large elegant, 19th c. houses with extensive gardens.
