Cemeteries probably aren't the first thing to cross your mind when it comes to tourist attractions, but they can reveal a great deal about a place. Wander around Cypress Grove and Greenwood Cemeteries for some clues to the past.
This burial ground, located in the urban neighborhood of Mid-City District, won't cost you a thing to visit. Eager for some more sightseeing? Mercedes-Benz Superdome, Jackson Square and French Market are nearby and also worth your time.
