"I really love this place, there is lot of art, music and talent all around everywhere. 100’s of artists painting live and show casing there work. Even you can guys some painting at low prices. There is some live shows and dance performances you can enjoy. And new year eve is the best you can enjoy fireworks from there."
"So many varieties of stores a tourist doesn't know where to begin. So many options that walking was NOT a deterrent. Musicians made it so much better because they were stationed every few yards and made the walk enjoyable. You can't help but dance along AND sing. This place is marvelous and full of clothing options and food choices. My brother was adamant about getting to Ms. Loretta's for praline beignets."
"A fun spot to browse local vendors and grab a bite. The French Market offers a mix of handmade goods, souvenirs, snacks, and regional specialties. It’s touristy but still worth a walk-through if you're nearby. Some stalls felt repetitive, but others had unique items and friendly sellers. Great for picking up small gifts or trying local treats."
