Chaque année, il accueille de nombreuses manifestations comme des concerts pique nique des flâneries et des compétitions équestres. Implanté vers 1909, c'est le prince de Polignac qui l'organise d'abord comme un "jardin d'agréments et de pratique du sport" pour ses ouvriers vignerons et cavistes puis comme un Collège d'athlètes, avec les meilleurs équipements : piste d'athlétisme, cinq tennis, des terrains de jeu de boules, de croquettes, de paume, de hockey. Détruit durant la guerre 14-18, le parc reste un havre de verdure qui fait le bonheur des promeneurs.

At one side of the park, there were tennis courts that were filled with plenty of people walking about during the middle of a work day. And there were sand pits too with little kiddos running around. And as you continue walking, there was a palace looking structure with a fountain out front. It was a beautiful sight to behold. The shrubbery and flowers in the area were so pretty even in the fall. There were chairs aplenty so taking a moment to enjoy the scenery was such a Parisian thing to do. Walking throughout the park, there were interesting statues everywhere. We even stumbled upon a miniature Statute of Liberty that was gifted from the United States to France. If you have some time, take a quick walk through the garden. It's really pretty and clean.

This is exactly why it's worth a visit - add something a bit different to your Paris trip. Landscape design is outstanding - you will find an artificial lake, a grotto and waterfalls. One of the two bridges was designed by Gustave Eiffel. The park is hilly and you can enjoy amazing views of Paris from different points. One of the highest points is Temple de la Sibylle (50m above the lake). You can see Basilique du Sacré-Cœur de Montmartre from here. This place is great for running - you can do flat circles around the lake or hilly runs everywhere, there are some 8 kilometers of roads and paths. One of the three restaurants, Rosa Bonheur, is really popular, it may take an hour of waiting to get in on weekends. You can find 5 areas with free Wi-Fi in the park. Post to yelp from here and don't forget to FUC (funny/useful/cool) this review :) P.S. There's a renovation going on in the park from 2013 till 2016, some areas may be closed (Temple de la Sibylle is closed at the time of writing).

Exploring the area, I found this gem of a Parc. I love exploring where the locals go for relaxation and where they eat. After a tasty meal nearby, my friend Mats flew in from London and we explored this lovely park. We mostly stayed under the tree lined paths because it was a hot day. For a park, we were here on a Wednesday around 2pm, lots of people looking like they are having a siesta or a break from work. Everyone seemed friendly, kept to themselves. The park is rich with different plants, trees and flowers. We hiked up to the highest point, from here you have an observation look out on the rooftops of Paris and a gorgeous view of Sacre Coeur. On the way to the top, you get to cross a bridge and below is a little lake. Some parts are rather steep, go at your own pace and bring a bottled water on a hot day and a plus if you wear a hat. Every turn you go into this park had something appealing. If you look at my images, there is also a cave. During raining season, the cave has a waterfall in it, it's very pretty. Plenty of grass room to have a picnic, take a nap or read a book. If you opt for something else, lots of park benches that faces the lake. A wonderful oasis in the heart of Paris. Everyone is welcome here, singles, couples, children, dogs...

This park and surrounding buildings make feel like you have traveled back to the 17th century…read more Place des Vosges is one of the oldest gardens and public squares in Paris. Originally called Place Royale, it is located in the Marais. The large park and garden is surrounded by elegant buildings erected in 1605. They were once home to Catherine de Medici and Victor Hugo. Today the park is still beautiful and open to the public. It was a great spot to enjoy my pain au chocolate one morning. The buildings now house a couple of 5 star hotels. Wouldn't you wake up like royalty staying here ? There also several art galleries, restaurants and cafés along the ground level with gorgeous interiors and fabulous outdoor dining under the porticos. My favorite shopping spot is in the north west corner- Juliette Has A Gun. I packed a more affordable hotel a couple of blocks away, but passed through here daily. Grabbing breakfast or snacks as heading to other parts of Paris.

This park is just delightful…read more It's a wonderful example of how you can take something mundane, apply a bit of imagination and turn it into a thing of elegance and beauty. The lot is on the side of a hill so the park starts off as two parallel stairways. They curve around a wooded area and drop you off on either side of the grotte. I've never seen stairs quite like this. When the pavement was poured they cut grooves into the steps that look like the grain in lumber. So the concrete looks like you're walking on wooden planks. And then you get to the cave. Someone took dozens of large, scraggly boulders and cemented them together to create a 30 foot structure with several entrances and a paved floor and a waterfall gently tumbling off the front into a beautiful, little, well manicured pool. Walk inside the grotte and you discover that you have a lovely view of the skyline of the nearby towns seen through the waterfall. And my kiddos climbed up to the top and discovered a little depression just big enough that they could squeeze their little butts inside and take a photo. Wander further down and there's a stone crocodile emerging out of the grass and another pair of staircases leading to a lovely lawn and a beautiful retaining wall ornamented with seven suns and several gargoyles. And still more stairs lead you to a little fountain and a reflecting pool and the little creek that runs through town. It's absolutely beautiful. One of those unexpected discoveries that make France such a delightful place.
