Nestled in the heart of Paris, the Jardin du Luxembourg, colloquially known as the Garden of the French Senate (Jardin du Sénat), is a haven of tranquillity and charm. Originally commissioned by Marie de' Medici, the garden exudes elegance with its meticulously manicured lawns, vibrant flowerbeds, and regal statues. A central palace, the Luxembourg Palace, adds a touch of grandeur, while tree-lined promenades, ornate fountains, and the iconic Medici Fountain create an enchanting atmosphere. This is one of the most interesting places in the city to people watch, where you will encounter frolicking families, strolling students, runners, rushing politicians, pickup chess matches, and lovers holding hands.
