PARK-GARDEN-PROMENADE

Jardins du Trocadéro

Place du Trocadéro - 75016 Paris Trocadéro - Passy
If there's one garden you should visit when you're passing the Eiffel Tower, it's the Jardins du Trocadéro! Created for the 1937 Universal Exhibition, it is located at the foot of the Musée de l'Homme and the Cité de l'architecture et du patrimoine, housed in the Palais de Chaillot. Its 93,930m² of green spaces have an uninterrupted view of the Eiffel Tower, which dominates the capital. The centrepiece of the garden is the famous Warsaw Fountain, with its 20 water cannons providing a remarkable aquatic spectacle, especially on summer nights when special lighting highlights the area around the basin. The fountain is crowned by a number of sculptures: gilded horses, a bull's head, ‘L'Homme’ by Traverse and ‘La Femme’ by Bacqué. The magnificent English-style gardens to the west and east feature winding paths, small pools, rocks, bridges and abundant vegetation, making them a very pleasant place to stroll around. The Paris Aquarium is also well worth a visit. It showcases the diversity of aquatic environments in mainland France and its overseas territories.
