River Road, Louisiana

River Road in Louisiana is considered to be the most famous section of the Great River Road in the United States of America. This fabled road extends for about 70 miles (110 km) from Baton Rouge to New Orleans, on both sides of the Mississippi River.

Dotted on each side of the River are antebellum plantation homes, many of them built in the Greek Revival style. Today there are also dozens of industrial plants along the route.[1]
