The Incredibly Unique Park That’s Right Here In New Orleans’ Own Backyard

With so many beautiful parks in New Orleans, it can be easy to overlook some. But you do not want to do that with Louis Armstrong Park. Since its recent full renovation, it's truly stunning. And there is definitely no park in New Orleans that has such a unique combination of history, art, and beauty.

The entrance to this park is right on the other side of the French Quarter, on 901 N Rampart St.

Armstrong Park is also the home of the Mahalia Jackson Theater and Congo Square.

The landscaping alone in this place is something really special.

There are some incredible bridges and waterways that allow for some truly beautiful places for a picnic or just to relax in the sun.

After taking in the gorgeous scenery, you will also enjoy the beautiful sculptures that are found throughout the area here.

This statue of Louis Armstrong is one of my favorites, it really offers a sense of Louis Armstrong's essence.

But one of the most unique aspects of this park is the history.

Congo Square is one of the most iconic places in New Orleans, and certainly a place where so much of New Orleans history was born.

You can feel the history of this place just by walking around.

That's one of the reasons I find it so special.

So when you are looking for a unique park with beauty, art, and history, check out Louis Armstrong Park.
