★★★★★2 months agoBeautiful gardens to have a peaceful walk, especially on a sunny morning. It is quite a big park and there is plenty of seating to sit in the sun. There are children’s play areas which are away from the main gardens, meaning peace is conserved. The lake and fountains with the palace in the background look straight out of a movie. I highly recommend visiting these gardens - you can easily walk here from the Notre Dame, just 15 minutes.
