16 Stunning Pictures of Louisiana Remind Why it’s the Best State

Louisiana is one of the most photogenic states in the country. From the bayous to the historical cities, there is so much to see and do. Here are 16 pictures of Louisiana that don’t do the state true justice but they’ll give you a taste of the beauty.

The Countryside

Dawn in Louisiana is absolutely breathtaking. The sunlight gleaming through the morning mist creates one of the most picturesque landscapes.

Louisiana is known for a lot of things, especially its gorgeous historical plantations.

Baton Rouge

Baton Rouge is the capital and it is truly stunning. From beautiful bridges to lovely city parks, Baton Rouge is also one of the most culturally diverse cities in Louisiana.

This state capitol building in Baton Rouge also serves as an example of unique architecture.

Old government buildings still stand impressively in Baton Rouge.

New Orleans

The city of New Orleans is, of course, the most popular city in Louisiana for many reasons. This is a shot from a good distance.

Jackson Square is a remarkably beautiful location in New Orleans. It marks the Battle of New Orleans when Andrew Jackson and troops defeated the British and ended The War of 1812.

The famous Bourbon Street is full of great shops, bars, and restaurants.

The New Orleans City Park is extraordinarily beautiful. Year-round the park holds amazing celebrations.

Cemeteries

Above-ground cemeteries in Louisiana are also very awesome to venture into. Because they look like cities of the dead!

As I was saying these pictures of Louisiana are great but there is so much more to see in the state. To truly represent the beauty of Louisiana justly, it’s best if you like the When In Louisiana Facebook page.
