Parc Floral de Paris - Floral garden
A little oasis of greenery in Paris.
Situated opposite the château de Vincennes, the Floral Park extends over 35 hectares of open space. Since 1969, here in the heart of Paris, you can admire a pine forest, a patchwork of flowerbeds, and even a pond coated with water lilies…
This is a little green paradise in the city itself, a real treat for city-folk who crave a bit of greenery and oxygen.
The floral park is a place to relax indeed, but also a place dedicated to botany, agriculture, and the environment. The park hosts exhibitions on various topics, from wine production to botanical subjects, and also boasts a large stage where jazz and classical concerts are hosted every summer. To top it off, there is even a giant playground for the little ones!
