Parc Floral de Paris
In the heart of the Bois de Vincennes, the Parc Floral is the City of Paris's botanical garden, created in 1969. Its 35 hectares combine themed flowerbeds, an iris garden, a valley of flowers, bonsais and a pine grove where peacocks and squirrels roam freely.
In summer, the Paris Jazz Festival and Classique au Vert give open-air concerts on the great lawn. The Japanese gardens and the spring tulip collections are among the year's highlights.
Tip: paid entry in season, free off-season. Allow 1.5 to 2 hours. Combine with Lac Daumesnil and the Château de Vincennes, both nearby.
