Lots to do at City Park! Great place for a picnic. You can rent bikes to ride or rent a swan boat to ride on Big Lake. Take a walk through the sculpture garden behind NOMA or walk through the botanical gardens. For little ones Story Land, the amusement rides, and City Putt are a blast. You can also get your beignets at Cafe Du Monde in the old casino building near Popps bandstand.
