ANAHEIM, Calif. – New Orleans Square at Disneyland Park evokes the energy, elegance, colorful culture, music and architecture of the French Quarter. It features the classic attractions, Pirates of the Caribbean and Haunted Mansion, along with distinctive boutiques and restaurants that give a taste of the Crescent City in the 1800s.
Walt Disney on New Orleans Square: “Disneyland would be a world of Americans, past and present, seen through the eyes of my imagination – a place of warmth and nostalgia, of illusion and color and delight.”
