Oak Alley Plantation
Oak Manor is located in the river region of Louisiana. It is a famous historic plantation in New Orleans. It was built between 1837 and 1839. It was originally a sugarcane plantation and operated by slave labor. It witnessed the rise and fall of slavery in the American South and became a historical landmark in the late 20th century. The manor got its name from the 28 oak trees in the front yard, which form a magnificent tree-lined avenue leading directly to the main house and are also a popular check-in point for Instagram bloggers. These oak trees are over 300 years old, tall and sturdy, with lush branches and leaves, covering the sky. Walking among them, it seems that you can hear the echo of history. The main house of the manor is very distinctive. It is a typical Greek Revival style building with white columns and spacious verandas, showing classical elegance. The house is decorated with exquisite antique furniture and gorgeous decorations, giving people a glimpse into the life of the upper class in the South before the American Civil War.United States · St. James Parish

really enjoyed kemah broadwalk amusement park.my favourite ride was definitely the bullet.we went after the hurricane, so there wasn’t much crowd and essentially all the rides had no queue.a tip: walk at the pier and you can see some dolphins!! we saw some swimming and jumping — it was truly a spectacle sight.another tip: get the houston city pass for $75, and get to visit kemah broadwalk + 4 other locations — super worth!!!you can do NASA + kemah as they’re nearby and the remaining three could be zoo, museum and aquarium on another day, all within walking distance! :) thoroughly enjoyed myself and would definitely recommend it to everyone?o

The French Quarter in New Orleans is also a large area. There are many things to visit here. There are also some very interesting small designs in the French Quarter, with things of different specifications designed according to the layout here. I really like the appearance here.

The most famous Jackson Square and St. Louis Cathedral in the city center, various grassroots artists on Bourbon Street in the French Quarter, take a vintage tram to the Garden District, and admire the mansions on the roadside

OAK oak tree, the crown is very large, the arch structure created by the two rows of trees is very beautiful. This manor is named after the tree, which is indeed very likable. The only inconvenience is that it is nearly 100 kilometers away from the city.
