New Orleans offers some of the best antique shopping in North America. You can find high-end chandeliers, jewelry, family heirlooms and more at a number of shops along Royal Street in the French Quarter. Start at the 200 block near Rue Bienville and walk toward Saint Louis Cathedral in Jackson Square.

A more diverse and potentially exciting antique shopping excursion awaits on Magazine Street uptown, beginning around the 2000 block and continuing uptown for a few miles. You’ll also find a collection of unique boutiques offering everything from the latest clothing and jewelry fashions to silver housewares, as well as art galleries, restaurants and gelato shops.
