Square Jean Perrin is one of the entries to the Galeries Nationales du Grand Palais – in fact there is a huge staircase leading from the square to the Grand Palais. The square is part of the Jardins des Champs-Elysées, right next to the Jardin de la Nouvelle-France.
A traditional French-style garden dotted with flowering shrubs, Square Jean Perrin is a good place to sit back and relax on summer days on benches around a magnificent pool in the centre of the garden.
The square is named after French chemist and politician Jean Perrin, who won the Nobel Prize for physics in 1926.
