하이라이트
As a department of the Preservation Resource Center, Save Our Cemeteries is the only non-profit tour operator directly supporting restoration, education, and advocacy in New Orleans cemeteries. In 1854, when more than 8,000 people in New Orleans succumbed to one of the nation’s worst outbreaks of yellow fever, bodies were just left outside the gates of Lafayette Cemetery No. 1 in the historic Garden District. The tombs inside this old City of the Dead tell tales of yellow fever, apoplexy, death by lightning and more. The tombs for Anne Rice’s Mayfair witches and Lestat from Interview with a Vampire are believed to have been modeled after specific tombs you’ll find here. Non-fictional yet larger-than-life people entombed at Lafayette No. 1 include Judge Ferguson of the Plessy vs. Ferguson “separate-but-equal” case, Brigadier General Harry T. Hays who led the 1st Louisiana Brigade in the Civil War, and the Brunies family of jazz musicians.

About New Orleans
New Orleans is the Louisiana city of jazz, Creole food and the French Quarter, set on a bend of the Mississippi River near the Gulf of Mexico.
New Orleans was founded by the French in 1718 and later ruled by Spain, and the French Quarter still shows it, with wrought-iron balconies, courtyards and Jackson Square, which St Louis Cathedral overlooks. Jazz was born here, and live music pours from clubs on Frenchmen Street. The St Charles streetcar rattles beneath oaks to the mansions of the Garden District.
Top-ranked sights in New Orleans: French Quarter, Jackson Square, LaLaurie Mansion.
