New Orleans NOLA - Oak Alley Plantation, filming location of "Interview with the Vampire" at night. Sorting through old photos, I found pictures of when I went to New Orleans with my buddies. New Orleans is a place with a very unique style that I think is worth visiting. It is about an hour's drive from the city center of New Orleans. The plantation with a history of more than 200 years is right there. There are 28 oak trees at the entrance, with their crowns intertwined, covering the sky. Two types of tickets are available for purchase, Sitewith/without "Big House" exhibit, the only difference is whether to visit the interior of the house.
