Nature Places Map
Nature in Paris:
Tuileries Garden
Luxembourg Garden
I suggest hitting the garden around 9 AM to beat the crowds and enjoy the serene atmosphere. It's a perfect time for those Instagram shots before everyone else shows up.
Trocadero Gardens
I recommend getting there around sunrise if you can. The early morning light hitting the Eiffel Tower is absolutely breathtaking and you'll avoid the crowds. My pictures turned out great!
Field of Mars
If you want fewer crowds and better photos, aim to visit right before sunrise, around 6:30 AM. The Eiffel Tower looks stunning in the morning light and you can enjoy the peace before tourists swarm in.
Vincennes Nature Reserve
La Villette
I recommend bringing a picnic! The lawns are perfect for lounging, and you can save some cash by eating there instead of in a restaurant.
If you plan to explore the area, wear comfortable shoes! There’s quite a bit of walking, and I wish I'd known that before my visit.
Buttes-Chaumont
I suggest visiting Buttes-Chaumont early in the morning, around 8 AM, to enjoy the park with fewer crowds and to catch the beautiful sunrise over the lake.
Wear comfy shoes! There are lots of hills and paths that make the place feel like a mini-hike. I regretted wearing my new sneakers that weren’t meant for walking
Catacombs of Paris
For the best experience try to go around 5 PM on a weekday. It was much less crowded then and I could really soak in the atmosphere without feeling rushed.
Park Monceau
I recommend exploring the paths a bit. The park has some hidden gems, like sculptures and quaint bridges, that you might miss if you stick to the main areas.
Aclimation Garden
Bring a picnic! I found a lovely shaded area to relax and enjoy some food I packed; way cheaper than buying snacks at the park!
