Great place to be during French Quarter fest.
Fantastic Memorials and a nice spot when the sun is going down, music playing and paddle wheels going out

What a fantastic discovery at Woldenberg Park near French Quarter! The sunset stroll along the Mississippi River was simply mesmerizing, with Jackson Square adding historic charm.

It is more of a riverwalk with live music and street performances, especially during the French Quarter Festival. The park includes several art installations: notably the Monument to the Immigrant and Ocean Song. Whether you're biking, walking, jogging, or just unwinding, this riverwalk oasis is a must-visit.

We visited the Audobon Aquarium and the Insectarium. Both were awesome. This is definitely something to do with kids or grandkids.

Woldenberg Park is a medium sized public park along the Mississippi river. We enjoy walking along or sitting beneath the many live oaks and crepe myrtle trees. There is also a large grass field for pick nickers or play. Be sure to look for the bronze statue of Mr. Woldenberg sitting on a bench and speaking with a young man. A nice park to visit.

Beautiful river walk on the banks of Mississippi. Calm quiet. You have access to ferry and cruise. You can also visit the aquarium.

A beautiful walk along the Mississippi and some beautiful artwork and sculptures. If you’re looking for a great spot to enjoy a morning coffee or an afternoon brew, this is a peaceful place to watch the action on the river.

Very windy here so if that bothers you don't go also there was a lot of graffiti (not artful graffiti either). But since the wind doesn't bother me it was a nice walk along the Mississippi River. I sat on a bench away from the water and by the steamboats so there was music from the boat. It was a nice place to relax and read. Lots of people walking dogs here too!
