Enjoying my mother's birthday in the beautiful city, I love my phone on a bench. The Park closed, and no one could open the gates. My flight was leaving the next day in the morning. The Park Attend, Leon, and the customer service operator retrieve my phone. I have my phone; what extraordinary care for a visitor. I am still in awe of how Leon had the phone and the operator was able to connect with him. , we still have people with integrity. I love New Orleans!

This is where the colonial French centered in the second half of the 18th century. In the middle the Andrew Jackson statue and the St, Louis Cathedral, rebuilt in 1788 after the big fire . Sit down and relax . Usually a band will play some music nearby.

Jackson square was the focal point of our exploration of New Orleans. Not only the square itself, but the surrounding places, the St Louis Cathedral, Cafe du Monde, the artists displays, the French Market, but also radiating outward, Preservation Hall, Bourbon Street, the Mississippi River, and the myriad restaurants, bars with music and street performers. It was all walkable and every block filled with music and rhythm. The other focal point of our visit was the Garden District.

This was the starting point of our first morning walking tour, and it is a good spot as you get the history behind the statue, and it breaks up the space between the French Quarter and the Mississipi. We found this to be an ideal spot during the week to sit and have our picnic out of Rouses Market, away from the hustle and bustle of Royal and Bourbon. A little bit of an oasis in the city.

Situated in the heart of the French Quarter and named after Andrew Jackson which has a beautiful statue in the middle of. This park is great for a stroll and to get that photo opportunity. There are plenty of restaurants around it and the St. Louis Cathedral at one end which is definitely worth a visit as well.

Hard to believe this place sits right next to the craziness of The French Quarter. Beautiful grounds. Great place to get away from the hustle. Take pictures or just sit and take in the beauty.

Jackson square is very picturesque and surrounded by artists displaying their works. After pictures of the square. Café du Monde is right across the street so you can grab some wonderful New Orleans coffee and powdered sugar covered beignets before taking a carriage ride around the French Quarter. After returning from your ride, there are several really good restaurants and book shops where you can eat and then find some wonderful books on the history of New Orleans. Oh, and try to be there at noon when the cathedrals bells go off! They're unusual and well worth waiting for.

Neat little area where there are shops and restaurants and the Riverwalk is right across the way. Jackson Square has a beautiful park and so much history lies there. I highly recommend visiting this piece of history while in Nola.

Jackson Square is right across from Saint Louis Cathedral, its pretty large and has some shade. A large statue of Andrew Jackson in the middle and it overlooks the river and not far from Cafe Da Monde. Great place to take pictures.

Jackson Square is a great, historic spot in NOLA. It's in the heart of the French Quarter and offers a respite from the bustle. It's also nice to see that the statue of Jackson remains, despite those who'd like to "cancel" him. Without Jackson, NOLA's history could be quite different.
