Jardin du Luxembourg is the largest park in the city of Paris. The park is very popular with both visitors and locals alike. Areas of interest in the park include a puppet theatre and the centre pond (Grand Bassin) where kids can rent small little boats with remote controls attached. Chess players are a popular sight also in Jardin du Luxembourg.
One of the main features of the park are the two fountains: the Fontaine de Medicis and the Fontaine de l’Observatoire. All you’ve to do is decide where you want to sit! During milder weather there are seats supplied by the park. These give you the chance to go and sit wherever you wish.
View statues of past French Queens, sit and view Luxembourg Palace as the gardens completely surround it. The garden is designed in your typical French style, is located on the left bank of the Seine and close to Luxeumbourg metro station.
