There are chairs everywhere, move them as you like. So a great place to rest and have home-made lunch . Money-saver! Don’t forget to check the fountain with adorable boats in front of the palace .

Statue of Liberty in Jardin du Luxembourg a must see place. Where it is? It is near the basketball Field . Don,t forget to bring your wine and picnic items with you.

My favorite public place in Paris. Great for a stroll, but when the sailboat vendor is there and the ducks are out on the pond it feels like a fairytale

A Fara

Wow, it is really beautiful, especially at summer and autumn. The red flowers around the square, the trees in line , and the fountain are fantastic. Don't miss them

Victoria Goulart

The most beautiful parc in Paris for sure! Lovely place to rest and eat something. Buy a French crepe and eat sitting and enjoying the view

Bianca Bueno

One of the most adorable parks in Paris . Great please to walk or just sit, read a book , drink some wine and coffee and enjoy the day.

The Jardin du Luxembourg, or the Luxembourg Gardens , is the second largest public park in Paris . The park is the garden of the French Senate, which is itself housed in the Luxembourg Palace .

New York Habitat

This beautiful garden should not be missed. Come here for a bit of relaxation and some sightseeing as well . The original Statue of Liberty is here, as well as a number of wonderful fountains .

Zach Klein

Obvious, I know, but my favorite park in the world and so many ways to do it right. Spend a couple lazy hours playing chess in a beer garden cafe , picnic on a lawn.

Krzysztof Kołosowski

Great garden with a lot of places for different kind of activities. You can smell the flowers while you're passing near the palace . A lot of interesting statues there as well . A must!

Dave G

Grab a sandwich at a pâtisserie , get a cup of coffee for take away at Pavillon de La Fontaine, find a park bench (that for some reason you will have all to yourself) & enjoy your lunch . Gorgeous park

Did you know? There is an original model of the Statue of Liberty in Paris' Jardin du Luxembourg. The statue has been in the park since 1906!

Almog Tlumak

Love this park , beautiful in spring, summer and autumn, in the winter it's plain and not much to see since the beauty of it is mostly the flowers and trees , in spring you can see the cheery blossom!

Ana Santellana

GORGEOUS garden and place to sit back and enjoy. Bring a picnic and just sit around to relax after a long day of exploring.

Mahsaa

It’s a great place to sit and relax! Maybe read a book or enjoy a friend’s company. People also go there for running or walking.

Holger Lüdorf

This is where the Parisians go on a beautiful day. Bring a picknick and have it on one of the lawns with students from Sorbonne and other locals.

Mahsaa

There are lots of sculptures representing active female figures throughout history and you can also find a smaller version of the Statue of Liberty there😁

Nilgün

By far the most beautiful park in Paris . Many areas to choose from, all very different. Avoid Sunday afternoons as it gets super busy.

An amazing garden open for Public to visit,heavy metal chairs every where are available to sit, nice place to get a rest for a while after a long walk at Saint Michele St.

Perhaps my favorite spot in Paris is this Italian-inspired garden . I could spend hours here reading, napping, chatting, and people-watching.

Shonya

So beautiful and comfortable to relax

Francois Pichard

Second largest park and definitely one of my favorite places in Paris ; just walk around, sit to grab a bite, run around the park , play tennis or watch people go by, in brief enjoy its multiple lives

E3Neenz

Get some cheese , wine & a baguette and relax. That it. Oh, and a book . If you only have time for lunch , grab a sandwich at a nearby shop and relax for an hour!

Jimmy Lai

2nd largest garden in Paris. On a sunny day, grab a chair and a novel or pick up a racquet and play tennis or buy a bottle of water and pay .20 or .50 euro to use the bathroom . Either way must see!!

Caroline Deng

One of the most beautiful gardens in Paris. Great for people watching or just relaxing in general.

Alex Co

One of my favorite places in the world. Grab some friends, picnic food and wine for a beautiful lazy afternoon in the sun and jovial atmosphere.

Corentin Combalbert

This is the biggest and oldest garden in Paris. I will advise you to go in the less well-known place, where small parakeets have the habit to fly and sing.

Julien Quester-Séméon

Great place for a jog. However it opens late and closes early in autumn and winter. Check the hours on http://www.senat.fr/visite/jardin/horaires.html to avoid surprises.

Alain

Try going for a run around 10, before the day heats up! Afterwards you can take out something refreshing and sit in one of the numerous lounge chairs, enjoying a book , a sunny Parisian day.

Olivier Fontenay

Right in the garden , the Musée du Luxembourg stages first class art exhibitions . The address is 19, Rue de Vaugirard, Don't miss it. https://www.parisdigest.com/paris-gardens/luxembourg-gardens.htm.

The most beautiful and interesting park in Paris . Sometimes, free photos exhibition along the barrier. Lovely views on different monuments of Paris.

Luxembourg Garden is beautiful for a stroll, picnic or a jog. I recommend getting up early for a run through the park .

At 22.5 hectares, this is the 2nd largest public park in Paris . Do not miss the grand fountains—the Fontaine de Medicis ((where you can get a view of the Pantheon) and the Fontaine de l'Observatoire.

One of the best places to chill in Paris when the weather is nice and sunny and warm!

One of my favourite parks in Paris . A traditional French park but with some grass spots that are good for a picnic .
