The New Orleans Botanical Garden at City Park offers a serene retreat from the hustle and bustle of urban life. Nature lovers of all ages wander around the lush foliage, play in the open gardens or relax near the tranquil fountains. Surrounded by the nation’s largest collection of mature live oaks, patrons enjoy a sensual walk past 2,000 varieties of plants. Most of the vegetation is native to Louisiana, but there are many other more exotic species.

Beautiful grounds in City Park, best visited in spring, summer, or fall when everything is blooming.

I love plants, so this may be less interesting to those who don't, but the garden contains a butterfly garden, native plants, a japanese garden and much more. I think it costs a few bucks to go in, but you can buy beer and wine to drink while you stroll!
