The Singing Oak
Tourist attraction
👍👍 The melodious tree towers in the heart of City Park, just down the road from the New Orleans Museum of Art. During the summer, the oak provides a reprieve from the sultry Louisiana heat and enchanting tunes from the wind chimes strung from the branches.
The chimes are all tuned to ring out in the p...

Parisite DIY Skatepark
Skateboard park
👍👍 This park is really cool. It’s like NOLA’s own Burnside or something. Reminds me a bit of Washington St. park back in San Diego as well. They’ve got a really cool snaking vert section and bowl, as well as a great quarter pipe/pyramid/ledge run underneath the freeway. On the outer edge of the park th...

City Park Carousel

👍 One of the oldest yet iconic rides in the park. It is recommended to take a ride on it with friends or family as opposed to by yourself.
One problem is that it is sometimes closed on weekdays.

👍👍 Beautiful lakefront park. You’ll have to climb up the hill to get there but there is a nice grassy patch with some tables, then benches along the water with stairs down to the water. Great for laying out on a sunny afternoon.

👍👍 We had our wedding here in May and were so happy with it. We worked with Denise who is the absolute best!
The food is great, and there's tons of options to make the menu what you want. It rained a little the day of our wedding, and our ceremony moved inside. It was still stunning and the staff hand...

Clouet Gardens
Park
👍👍 I love Bywater, anytime you take a walk, you are greeted with something new to see. It is so peaceful . This garden is a great place to sit and just reflect. Don't leave without speaking on the windphone;) There is a little free library where you can even grab a book while you sit.
