The Luxembourg garden

Luxembourg garden

A green paradise

The Luxembourg Garden is one of the most popular parks in Paris. Approximately 2.5 km from the Place des Alpes hotel, between Saint-Germain-des-Prés and the Latin Quarter, this garden is inspired by the Florentine garden Boboli. 

One part is laid out as a formal garden and the other as an English garden. There is a geometric forest, an orchard, beehives, a greenhouse with magnificent orchids and a rose garden.

Stroll along the flowered alleys, between the many statues and up to the impressive Medici fountain.

The youngest visitors can have fun with facilities such as rides, puppets and slides.
