Oak Alley Plantation is a beautiful homestead on the west bank of the Mississippi River. It is located in Vacherie, St. James Parish, Louisiana. It is known for the quarter-mile of 28 giant 300-year-old oak trees that lead up to the big house. It also balances out the history of the big house going from a plantation to a cattle ranch and now on the National Historic Registry, with plantation slave quarters built in the same place former slave shacks would have been. Make sure to get your tickets early and take advantage of the historical interpreters on-site near the slave quarters.

Hi! Welcome to the Culture Trekking Community! My name is Janiel Green, a Physician Assistant, Scuba Diver, Dog lover, Photographer, and Videographer! I love to make people smile, am known for not beating around the bush (unless it is in my garden). I also tend to say it as I see it before my brain can tell me its probably not socially acceptable to do so. My spirit animal is a Sea Turtle, I hate mushrooms, and don’t trust a man who lays on the romance too thick.
I love to travel the world, connect with different cultures, and find sustainable adventure. I have explored the most off-the-beaten-path places, and cultures throughout the world.
With over a decade of professional photography experience, and a self-taught videographer and editor. I also want to teach you a few tricks of the trade to make better travel videos, and take better travel photos - even if you are a solo traveler.
