[4K] French Quarter in New Orleans, Louisiana USA - Walking Tour Vlog & Vacation Travel Guide 🎧

The French Quarter is the oldest neighborhood in the city of New Orleans. After New Orleans was founded in 1718 by Jean-Baptiste Le Moyne de Bienville, the city developed around the Vieux Carré ("Old Square" in English), a central square. The district is more commonly called the French Quarter today, or simply "The Quarter," related to changes in the city with American immigration after the 1803 Louisiana Purchase. Most of the extant historic buildings were constructed either in the late 18th century, during the city's period of Spanish rule, or were built during the first half of the 19th century, after U.S. annexation and statehood. The district as a whole has been designated as a National Historic Landmark, with numerous contributing buildings that are separately deemed significant. It is a prime tourist destination in the city, as well as attracting local residents.

Jackson Square is a public, gated park the size of a city block, located at the front of the French Quarter. In the mid-19th century, the square was named after President (formerly General, of Battle of New Orleans acclaim) Andrew Jackson.

On the opposite side of the square from the River are three 18th‑century historic buildings, which were the city's heart in the colonial era. The center of the three is St. Louis Cathedral. The cathedral was designated a minor basilica by Pope Paul VI.

The most well known of the French Quarter streets, Bourbon Street, or Rue Bourbon, is known for its drinking establishments. Most of the bars frequented by tourists are new but the Quarter also has a number of notable bars with interesting histories.

The charm of this old neighborhood, are these large balconies and good conservation.

The pleasure we derive from journeys is perhaps dependent more on the mindset with which we travel than on the destination we travel
This was absolutely stunning to watch. Greate work, great edit

This was a great video. I appreciate you taking the time to stop and give us panoramic views. I've watched other walking tours and they would just keep the camera focused straight ahead and I would be like "wait what was that over there to the right?” lol

At any time I expect to see the angry suffragette or to collapse on the tracks only to be quickly carried off into the doc's to receive my fatal diagnosis.. RDR2 did a great job: they really made St. Denis look like New Orleans.. but they made St. Denis actually much more dreamy and beautiful.
