Rosedown Plantation - St. Francisville, Louisiana

A few weeks ago,  I visited the Rosedown Plantation in St. Fancisville, Louisiana with some of my family. Although it was raining all day, it was one of the best and fun days I've had had in awhile. Before visiting the plantation, we ate lunch at a little cafe called the Magnolia Cafe in St. Francisville. The food was amazing and the atmosphere was very inviting. I will definitely be going back sometime in the near future. 

From what I can remember I've  never visited a plantation home before, needless to say, I was blown away with how beautiful this place was. It was very extravagant, symmetrical and Victorian like. We toured the house and learned about the family that used to live there in the 1800s, and what it was like to live there during that time period. It was very interesting to hear about and to picture what it was like then. Because it was raining, I didn't get to see all of the gardens, but here a a few pictures of what I did see. Hopefully I will go back soon to see more!
