A shopper’s paradise, Royal Street is a repository of grand family-owned antique shops and fine art galleries just a block and yet a world away from the party on Bourbon Street. The street is a shopping and dining destination that stretches from Canal Street to Esplanade in the French Quarter, through the residential Marigny and Bywater neighborhoods all the way to the Industrial Canal.
Wander into its many unique stores and find crystal chandeliers, 19th Century absinthe glasses and owner-operated gift shops with a particular point of view. Royal is also where you can dine in hidden courtyards, listen to street buskers and visit historic city landmarks. Be sure to stop on your stroll and enjoy the music that street musicians play every day and night. And because Royal Street is also where New Orleanians have lived and thrived for generations, strollers will pass by beautiful private homes, small grocery stores, banks and other landmarks to a neighborhood buzzing with life.

It’s around midnight in the Marigny. Neon blinks, a trombone slides and a crowd gathers for another impromptu curbside concert on Frenchmen Street. Frenchmen -- crowded, buzzing and vibrant -- might just be the most consistently musical stretch of asphalt in New Orleans. Its venues offer an array of live performances ranging from traditional jazz to blues to reggae and rock and are, themselves, famous, attracting audiences from all over the world.
Music
With one trip around the clubs on Frenchmen, you are likely to hear all kinds of music, as it is what the street is known for. It’s not the first place most visitors know to go to, but inside the clubs like Snug Harbor, the Spotted Cat, d.b.a , Blue Nile and even outside on the street, you’ll hear some of the best live music produced anywhere in the world. Grab some friends and dance the night away on this bumping thoroughfare. Most clubs are 21 and older, but a few allow children until 10pm! If it's a family night out, visit 30/90 and the Maison.
Food
After all that music and dancing, you’ll find a number of late-night eateries that are open along Frenchmen Street and in the adjacent Faubourg Marigny neighborhood. At the end of the night (or even the beginning) this area has plenty of dining options from casual to elegant. Favorites include Dat Dog, Adolfo's, Marigny Brasserie, and Three Muses (where you can hear live music as well).

Noisy. Raucous. Nocturnal. For many New Orleans visitors, Bourbon Street embodies the life of a party town. The street is lit by neon lights, throbbing with music and decorated by beads and balconies. Named for a royal family in France and not the amber-colored alcohol, Bourbon Street has become a place for revelry of all sorts. With its windows and doors flung open to the wandering crowds, it should be no surprise that the famed sidewalk strolling libation known as the “go cup” was invented on Bourbon Street, according to Tulane University historian Richard Campanella. Many things change in New Orleans, but the color and excitement of Bourbon Street never falters.
Bourbon Street is a prime destination for bachelorette and bachelor parties, birthday celebrations and an overall mecca for those looking to have a good time as they stroll from bar to bar. During the Southern Decadence Festival, which falls around the Labor Day holiday, Bourbon hosts an array of gay-friendly festivities and parties lasting for an entire week. Carnival season in early spring draws thousands of Mardi Gras revelers to the street both night and day. However, you can always enjoy a drink on Bourbon's famous balconies year-round, sing karaoke on stage or ride a mechanical bull as well as appreciate great music.

Stretching six miles parallel to the Mississippi River from Canal Street to Audubon Park, Magazine Street travels from the Central Business District and the Warehouse Arts District through the Garden District and Uptown.

Clusters of shops are interspersed with charming homes, and a mix of renovated warehouses and shops selling housewares, pottery, period furniture, clothing, books, glass, toys, china, soaps and jewelry. Magazine Street is the ideal spot for a leisurely walk-about, with plenty of coffee shops, cafes and restaurants to provide a pit stop and refreshment to the tired shopper.

The same kind of authenticity that gives the French Quarter its immutable sense of place crosses Canal when Royal Street becomes St. Charles Avenue. This grand and leafy residential avenue, which stretches more than five miles before terminating near the river at South Carrollton Avenue, is the embodiment of so many things New Orleans. Look up into the gorgeous old oaks that line the street, and at the shimmering Mardi Gras beads that mark an epic Carnival route. The sounds a green streetcar announces the oldest continuously running route for such transit in the world and a National Historic Landmark that takes French Quarter visitors to the Garden District and Uptown and locals to work and school. Then there’s the architecture, a stellar collection of 19th and 20th century mansions built by captains of industry and city fathers. Crowned Uptown by Audubon Park, Loyola and Tulane Universities, dotted with bars and restaurants from divey to decadent, St. Charles Avenue is a living monument to yet another aspect of New Orleans allure.

Bar
Live Entertainment every Wednesday - Saturday
The famous Carousel Bar & Lounge in Hotel Monteleone is a long-time favorite New Orleans hotspot. The classic New Orleans hotel bar is the city’s only revolving bar. For decades, it has lured guests in to take a spin on the 25-seat, bright, circus-clad Merry-Go-Round. Recently, Vogue Living named the bar one of the Top 20 Bars in the World, due in equal parts to their whimsical revolving carousel and comprehensive list of cocktails. Vogue recommends the Sazerac, although their cocktail menu has plenty of other enticing options. There is also a food menu available.
