Bordered by the lapping Old Blue, start your NOLA dance off in its bustling heart at the city's iconic cathedral and its tapering towers beaming on Antoine Alley, then it's off to its luscious shadow Jackson Park, circled by horse-drawn carriages and a treasure trove of artistic works. Pass the Baroque-styled Cabildo museum before heading to the charm-filled French Quarter, where you'll navigate nooks lined with pastel-colored buildings and fern-filled balconies. Stroll along sparkly Canal Street next then bounce around electric Bourbon Street, pass jazz hubs and sassy street artists. Flit passed aroma-filled food stalls at historic French Market, then saunter along shopper's paradise Royal Street, pulsating with antiques and modern galleries galore.
