With a wealth of monuments and a proliferation of urban development, Paris is also a city with sumptuous green spaces with no finer example than the Jardin du Luxembourg.
Surrounded with exceptional neighbours (St Germain des Pres and the Latin Quarter), there are many sides to the Jardin du Luxembourg (or "Luco").
Romantic: perfect for a stroll with that special person.
Peaceful: hundreds of garden chairs invite you to take a nap or read one of the classic works of French literature.
Cerebral: this is a venue for chess players who do battle in the shade of the trees.
Musical: the band stand is home to virtuosos from the world of classical music.
Unusual: games of jeu de paume, a precursor of tennis, take place in the Jardins du Luxembourg.
Sporting: its pathways are a favourite with Parisian joggers and you can often spot a celebrity keeping fit.
Surprising: the gardens are home to bee hives which produce an excellent Parisian honey.
Dreamers will enjoy a wander outside the park, admiring the photographs hanging on the gates themselves, highlighting the exhibitions put on by the majestic Senat whose head office is located here, or a visit to the Observatoire de Paris, to the south of a Luco with a thousand faces.
