I'm a history buff and the national ww2 museum was a long awaited trip. It was an easy 20 mins walk from the French quarter. We ended up spending well past 5 hours here. There is just so much information to read and all very interesting. It's a well done exhibit and strongly recommended for those with an interest in history and world war 2 era.

The French Quarter in New Orleans is also a large area. There are many things to visit here. There are also some very interesting small designs in the French Quarter, with things of different specifications designed according to the layout here. I really like the appearance here.

New Orleans
Day8: On the way to New Orleans, we visited a chili farm. Tabasco is a famous global chain brand. The small manor was full of the smell of chili sauce. The buildings were all fiery red. There were many different types of chili, including pepper green, sweet chili, spicy to the point of tears, and the corresponding spiciness of each type. There was a garden nearby with alligators, and the small shop also had many aquatic animal specimens. We had a subway lunch, and suddenly I thought the pizza was delicious. I wanted to add ketchup, but the waiter looked surprised, hehe, maybe they don't add sauce. We continued on the road and arrived at the French Quarter of Louisiana. There were all kinds of small things in the French market, such as Christmas, Halloween, witches, skulls, crosses, and some antiques. The Moon Walk embankment is close to the Gulf of Mexico, and you can see the bridge and high-rise buildings in the city. There is a cathedral in Jackson Square, and there are many witches in front of the stalls doing divination.

The city park is very big and beautiful. There are many old trees with a very long history and ponds. It feels like being in the suburbs and you don’t feel like you are in a big American city.
