Today we traveled Plantation Road located along the banks of Mississippi River between New Orleans and Baton Rouge. We toured the Houmas House Plantation pictured here. The main building was completed in 1829. This was a sugarcane plantation. Our tour guide was very informative and at the end of the tour we met the current owner. In all we viewed 5 plantations built between 1790 and 1839.
