This 1,300-acre, 150-year-old park is just as majestic today as it was before Hurricane Katrina ravaged it. Joggers and bikers come here to workout while admiring the parks gorgeous landscape, which includes giant oaks and tranquil lagoons. Picnic areas and playgrounds abound as well as beautiful gardens including The New Orleans Botanical Garden. Other major highlights include: Carousel Gardens Amusement Park, New Orleans Museum of Art (NOMA) and Besthoff Sculpture Garden, and Equest Farm Equestrian Center. Although the park's three golf courses are still damaged and in the process of rebuilding, the golf driving range is open if you want to hit a few balls during your New Orleans vacation
