Description:
New Orleans is full of beauty at Christmas time. But away from the lighted mansions of the Garden District and the noisey French Quarter there is a place reminiscent of an innocence of a bygone era, and it is the Celebration in the Oaks at City Park
The beautiful oak trees are adorned in thousands of twinkling lights that appear to be dripping rain drops from it’s branches. The hundred year old carousel with its majestic horses, lions and camels will take you back to your childhood.
Take the open air train through the beauty of this splendid park dressed in it’s finest Christmas apparel and see the animated Cajun Night before Christmas displays, the lighted alligators with antlers in the lagoons, the floating swans and even a pirate ship. You must experience this true gem of Christmas in New Orleans.
The holiday light festival covers about 13 acres of the park, including the Carousel Gardens, Storyland and the Botanical Gardens.
From the Author: This is a stunning park, with it's natural landscape, lagoons and 600 year old live oaks. To see it at night covered in sparkling and colorful lights will take your breath away.
