Situated right next to Bourbon Street, Royal Street is New Orleans' local art hub. Some of the city's most historic architecture can be found on this street, making it an excellent destination for photographers. There are also quite a few art galleries where visitors can find everything from sculptures to paintings to mixed media.

The street is an excellent place to go shopping for antiques as well; many elegant items from the area's most luxurious 19th and 20th century estates have ended up for sale here. Visitors can also choose from a wide selection of boutiques, restaurants, and accommodation options. Map
