  • "Fruits à tous les étages" in the "Parc de Bagatelle" (until November 2015, 1st)

April in Paris! The sun is everywhere. Time to go to the "Jardin des Plantes"

"Jardin des Plantes" with, in the back, the "Grande Galerie de l'Évolution"
These days, the sun is everywhere in Paris. It is time to go in the splendid Parisian parks and gardens.
You may know the "Jardin des Tuileries" and the "Jardin du Luxembourg".
Don't forget the "Jardin des Plantes" less central in Paris. The "Garden of the Plants" is the main botanical garden in France and also a very old park, created in the seventeen century.

Cherry trees, Prunus, flowers, spring in Paris!

The place is magnificent.
