On the way to the Roland Garros Stadium
Greenhouses and botanical romance
Located in the heart of the Bois de Boulogne, a few minutes' walk from the Roland Garros Stadium, the Jardin des Serres d'Auteuil is a true paradise for botany and horticulture enthusiasts, with its remarkable trees and collections of rare plants.
You can admire 6,000 plants and typical 19th-century greenhouses, discover a large central lawn decorated with floral decorations, buildings with symmetrical architecture in the classical style, an English-style landscaped garden, a Japanese-inspired garden and a small garden with Mediterranean essences.

Boat trip in the Belle Époque
Do you know the Lower Lake of the Bois de Boulogne (which Parisians actually call "the big lake")? If you've never been there, embark right away on a boat ride that will remind you of the Paris of the Belle Époque.
Because with its artificial waterfall, its "chalet restaurant" on an island (barge crossing accessible free of charge with a Navigo pass, imagine R or Paris 2024 pass), its boats to rent for a romantic ride on the water of the lake, its majestic swans and, in the distance, the Eiffel Tower which is revealed at the bend of a tree, nothing is more exotic, in this Paris so dense, as this Inferior Lake.
And if you are good walkers, you can even walk along it, rather than going around it, to reach the Roland Garros Stadium directly via the Bois de Boulogne!

On the way to the Eiffel Tower Stadium
A breath of contemporary art just a stone's throw from the Eiffel Tower
Located in the heart of Paris, facing the Seine and the Trocadero gardens, the monumental building of the Palais de Tokyo offers passers-by an imposing architecture, a vestige of the 1937 International Exhibition.
Becoming the largest contemporary art center in Europe in 2012, the Palais de Tokyo is home to two museums: the Musée d'art moderne de la Ville de Paris, in the east wing, and an art center hosting the daring work of emerging contemporary artists, in the west wing.
A vibrant and surprising place for an artistic experience off the beaten track.
