Next up is the New Orleans Museum of Art (NOMA). New Orleans’ oldest museum features over 4,000 art pieces, rotating exhibits, and a sculpture garden. Speaking of gardens—the New Orleans Garden District is known for its enchanting manicured grand mansions, streetcar, shopping on Magazine Street, and zoo. Its scenery makes it the optimal backdrop for photography, so don’t forget to pack your camera!
