New Orleans: French Quarter After Dark

An 1820s apothecary with antique remedies and surgical tools. Visit before it closes in the late afternoon.

St. Louis Cathedral rises over the square, and Halloween night brings costumes to every corner of the Quarter.

Completed in the 1750s and often cited as the oldest building in the Mississippi Valley. The "casket girls" story told about it is legend.

A private residence, viewed from the street. An 1834 fire here exposed Delphine LaLaurie's abuse of enslaved people.

A candlelit bar in an 18th-century building on Bourbon Street, a classic last stop.
