On my first trip to Paris, there were so many famous things that I wanted to see, but one that was not on my 'had to see' list was Luxembourg Gardens as I wasn't as familiar with it. However, I would absolutely recommend visiting it. It is hidden in a very nice residential area and if I hadn't been looking... more

I recently visited the Luxembourg Gardens for the first time and was overwhelmed by the beauty of the floral displays, the sense of peace and space in the midst of Paris more

Full of statuary, splendid trees, fountains and laid-back people, this timeless park must surely rank as one of the most beautiful in the world. A great place to go on a hot day; a great pit stop to enjoy a picnic or a relaxing moment or two. It's only a few blocks from the Seine and a stone's throw from... more

I'm not sure I'll have time to post a formal trip report for my Paris trip as we are doing so much every day but I thought I'd take time to post a review on this beautiful park. My wife and 13 month old baby are on a 1.5 month long trip and we absolutely LOVE parks. We've hit a... more

This is a very nice park in the middle of Paris. Parking is close beside in an underground garage. Some things to note, there is a great play park for the kids but you need to pay to get them in - 2.60 Euro each - rather odd we thought. There is a musuem as well of to the side... more

I was there in June 2009. It was beautifully groomed, great place to relax and walk around. It is very big, so there are very quiet relaxing places and also activities in various spots, so you can wander over to the basketball courts, or the pond where kiddies are floating boats, or the little stage with musical acts, etc. It's... more

We specifically took the Metro to Luxembourg Gardens so our Shiba Inu could have some "outside" time and meet "Parisian" dogs...and it didn't disappoint. There is a section of the park where the neatly lined trees are that offer quite a nice shade for dogs and humans alike. The dog park area was very clean. It is certainly one of... more

The Jardin du Luxembourg it's a relaxing green area in Paris, perfect to have a nice picnic, to walk along, our just to stand sitting at the lake chairs. I advise to mind the stairs near the lake, because they're a bit slippery. (my backside will remember it for long time) :( more

The word garden is a stretch, it's a park. Maybe there is something lost in the translation. It's the most beautiful park though. It's like going to a park that is manicured better than more golf courses. A great spot if you have kids for sure! It was a great way to sit and unwind and people watch before some... more
