Monceau Park

Parc Monceau, Monceau Garden
France, Paris
Parc Monceau is a picturesque 8-hectare park located in the 8th district of Paris, close to the Arc de Triomphe. It began to be created in 1769, when Philippe d'Orleans bought land next to the modern rue Courcelles and decided to build a pavilion with a French garden on it. It was made in an English style, uncharacteristic of traditional French gardens. The park was opened to everyone only in 1861.

Nowadays Monceau Park is a great place to relax for those who are looking for peace and quiet away from the bustling city.

This is an unconventional French park, made in the English style, which occupies almost 8 hectares almost in the center of Paris. From the side of the main entrance from Boulevard Courcelles, it is impossible not to pay attention to the beautiful forged metal gates, which are a true masterpiece of gilding and iron casting of the 19th century. There is also an old rotunda at the entrance. The park is decorated with sculptures, bridges across the river, rotunda, arches. Here you can see monuments to some artists - the writer Guy de Maupassant, the composers Ch.
