Separating the Louvre from Place de la Concorde, Jardin des Tuileries are semi-formal French gardens that have survived centuries. Catherine de Medici created them in 1564, and they were revamped 100 years later. The gardens serve as a cultural walking space, where Maillol statues complement those by Rodin and Giacometti. To relax, go towards one of the benches at either of the two ponds, where people drive model boats on the water. For a quick snack, stop at one of the cafes, ice cream shops, or crépe stalls surrounding the space. The low cut of the impeccably manicured hedges around the statues allow you to photograph each one in full sunlight.

This is the perfect place for a walk, picnic or just to sit and read a book. It's a beautiful garden. We first came here in the morning and it was so calm and relaxing, but in the evening it was quite busy. You have plenty of benches and chairs to sit and enjoy the view. It's also one of the best ways to get to the Louvre in my opinion.

Wonderful wonderful garden. Big big garden. So nicely maintained with enough places to eat here, along with the rides for children and all. This is a wonderful happening place in Paris. The evening walks and the cold breeze, just breathtaking. Really enjoyed having a walk here.
