The French Market

The French Market is in New Orleans, Louisiana. If you are in downtown New Orleans, this is a must do! The market is around the French Quarter, so you can’t miss it! This is an open-air market of five blocks displaying shopping, music, food, and different types of arts. In 1791, it originated as a Native American trading post along the Mississippi River. French and Spanish colonists opened the market up to ships and traders from all over the world. To this day it is still a popular spot to visit. While I was there, I got a handcrafted NOLA bracelet, tried fried alligator, and ate a fried corn on the cob. It is very unique and different. I had a blast at the French Market and highly recommend making a stop there!

This lady was writing poetry on the spot in the middle of the market. So cool!
