This one is called Oak Alley Plantation.....it is beautiful!

Located on the Mississippi River between the historic cities of New Orleans and Baton Rouge, Louisiana, Oak Alley Plantation has been called the "Grande Dame" of the Great River Road. Nowhere else in the South will you find such a spectacular setting! The quarter-mile canopy of giant live oak trees, believed to be nearly 300 years old, forms an impressive avenue leading to the classic Greek-revival style antebellum home.

Built in 1839 by a wealthy French Creole sugar planter from New Orleans, Oak Alley Plantation today offers daily guided tours, bed & breakfast accommodations in 19th-century Creole cottages, a Cajun/Creole restaurant offering local favorites, a café/ice cream parlor, an impressive gift shop and a spectacular setting for weddings, parties and other private functions.

Can you believe that those trees have lived that long in the South and avoided all those tornadoes? Just think, if the South had won the war everything in America would look like that.
