Tree of Life

Incredible 300 year old tree in a beautiful park, just absolutely stunning. The best unknown attraction in New Orleans! You can even sometimes see the giraffes at the zoo right next to the tree.

A power spot! Don’t take my word for it: walk under her tree canopy yourself and you’ll feel the tug of her atmosphere.

Beautiful tree. Nice walk with scenery. Very peaceful

Great spot to feel connected to something more than yourself. Spiritual energy here.

The official name of this tree is Étienne de Boray Oak. We ALWAYS visit this tree when we come to New Orleans. If you are a tree lover this is not one to be missed. The branches (some of which actually grow all the way to the ground) are so massive they can be walked up without it even shuttering. It can be a popular spot, especially on nice, sunny days. Well worth the trip!
