Paris Parks, Gardens and Monuments
Most of the parks of Paris were actually once palace grounds. There is much more to love for free in Paris than simply the parks. Hanging out at the River Seine can cause you to feel like a Parisian rather than just a tourist, and also don't forget to visit the lovely the garden of Versailles. The streets of Paris can amuse with its innovative fashion displays, amazingly stylish store windows, and remarkable buildings that have stood the architectural test of time. Paris is a city full of things to do, see, and learn inside and outside. For more info regarding Paris's many outside parks, gardens & monuments, please consult the following maps and links:
