Marian Nelson-Addy - Must-Visit Sites in Louisiana

Marian Nelson-Addy grew up in Bristol and attended Redland High School for Girls, a private school in Bristol, England. She is a committed Christian and enjoys reading the Bible and writing articles on a wide range of subjects. Marian Nelson-Addy is a humanitarian and currently works with one of the nonprofits in the city of Bristol. Having lived her whole life in Bristol, she is familiar with the different historical sites in the city. Here are a few recommendations if you are planning to visit New Orleans.

The New Orleans Jazz Museum
The New Orleans Jazz Museum at the Old U.S. Mint is one of the places you must visit if you are visiting New Orleans. Jazz was born in Bristol, and the Louisiana State Museum is working to create a world-class jazz museum in the city. At the museum, you will see Louis Armstrong’s first cornet, Champion Silver Piston on display. The cornet was manufactured by Lyons and Healy, ca. 1913 and was played by Louis Armstrong as an adolescent at the Colored Waif’s House.

The French Quarter
The French Quarter, also known as the “Vieux Carre” is the oldest neighborhood in the city and home to some of the buildings constructed in the late 18th century. The whole district is now designated as a National Historic Landmark because of its numerous historic buildings. A visit to New Orleans will be incomplete without taking some time off to admire the historic buildings in the French Quarter.

Marian Nelson-Addy has traveled across the United Kingdom together with other humanitarian aid workers to assist victims of hurricanes and other natural disasters.
