What people say

Charles Taylor
"A landscaped grounds of a 17th-century palace with a large fountain, tree-lined walkways & flowerbeds. This is one of our favorite gardens in Paris, due to the fact that it’s tucked away from the crows and provides a peaceful escape from bustling Paris. Grab a coffee from Café Kitsuné and sit by the fountain or under the trees and enjoy!"

"Palais Royal offers architecture and rich cultural heritage in the heart of the city. Its history dates back to the 17th century, when it was built by Cardinal Richelieu as his personal residence. After his death, the palace passed into the hands of the royal family and became the scene of important political and social events. "
"Another popular spot to see, you can miss the black and white pillars if you don’t seek them out and they are fun to see. It’s fun to people watch here too and watch people climb on them and take photos."
