Neat little area where there are shops and restaurants and the Riverwalk is right across the way. Jackson Square has a beautiful park and so much history lies there. I highly recommend visiting this piece of history while in Nola.

Jackson Square is right across from Saint Louis Cathedral, its pretty large and has some shade. A large statue of Andrew Jackson in the middle and it overlooks the river and not far from Cafe Da Monde. Great place to take pictures.

Jackson Square is a great, historic spot in NOLA. It's in the heart of the French Quarter and offers a respite from the bustle. It's also nice to see that the statue of Jackson remains, despite those who'd like to "cancel" him. Without Jackson, NOLA's history could be quite different.

Jackson square is located close to the French Quarter and the famed Cafe du Monde. It is a nice plot of land and vegetation in front of the St. Loius Cathedral, however there were homeless people, street performers, etc. that are very prevalent in the area and tend to take away from the beauty of the square. If you are visiting New Orleans for the day, then I would make sure to visit this place. If I were to come back and visit the city, I would not feel the need to visit this square again.

A lot going on here. Impressive architecture, diverse artists, musicians, street performers and street people. Worthwhile to spend a little time in this area. Not the highlight of our trip but interesting

Very cool place. Nice gardens. All kinds of shops and food surround the square. Great people watching. All kinds of artwork and artists. Lots of psychics. Also musicians, jugglers, and other types of street entertainers can spend hours at a time or just pass through. Always something to see and, of course, ready access to the waterfront or the French Quarter.

The buildings, specifically the church, are stunning and offer gorgeous architectural views. The square is beautiful, and I'd be sad if we'd missed it. However, the square is very crowded by tourists (just like us), people selling things, singing, fortune telling, street shows, and unfortunately, lots of homeless individuals as well. It's a sad fact that smacks you in the face at every literal corner. I wish New Orleans had a better plan for these people in need.

This is my fourth time on New Orleans and I never get tired of Jackson Square. The street musicians are always amazing and it is fun to see all the local artists at work (especially on the weekend when all sides are full). Of course the Cafe Du Monde is a must stop in New Orleans. Pro - tip- go mid week to avoid long lines. (Or to the City Park location). It is enjoyable to go up the stairs and downs the river walk as well.

There is so much to see and do in the Jackson Square area. Carriage rides, Art sellers, Museums, Cathedral, souvenirs, Beignets, Mississippi river, statues, music, random weddings. Just don't miss it!

Great spot to visit and explore. Find a close by parking garage and walk to this square. The famous cafe du Monde, Joan of arc statue, French market, boat rides are walkable distances from this square. Wear comfortable shoes and enjoy the live music that bands or individuals play to entertain folks. Do tip them.
