Peristyle is a lovely Grecian style structure located in City Park, which has improved over the years. It offers a big lawn, making it ideal for picnics and events like concerts by the New Orleans Philharmonic Orchestra. Visitors enjoy the park's beauty, including the Sculpture Garden, and the variety of activities available, such as swinging and strolling. Weekdays are less crowded, and parking is available, enhancing the overall experience at this charming destination.
This parrt of the park is really nice with a panteon type building having stone lion protecting it. Some of the trees are wonderful with the moss drape making them look excellent, Near to here is a cafe where you can get really nice pastries (Beignets 3 off served at a time). Watch out though theyhave a lot of icing sugar.

This whole area is great for strolling and simply enjoying the beauty of NOLA without the hustle of Downtown. It's full of great photo ops areas.

We had a picnic for greatgrandsons first birthday. Very crowded on a Saturday. Better on weekday. City park is much nicer than years ago. Parking is available too.
