No. 123: Le Jardin des Plantes

Okay. So it’s not quite Martinique, but the glasshouses of le Jardin des Plantes are certainly a warm and wonderful place to spend a cold and cloudy winter day in Paris.

    The garden surrounding the glasshouses is very nice in the summer. Lots of beautiful flowers in bloom…well worth a visit. (Suzanne

      Yes. It’s a fantastic green space. The iris garden is particularly lovely. I think all the museums are pretty nifty too. The Natural History Museum is such a throw back to my childhood…formaldehyde jars with freaky things, big bones…
