You may recognise this monument by its formidable 52-metre 14th-century donjon, which has four circular turrets, arrow loops and crenellations, all defended by an outer walled enclosure and a deep, impassable moat. As a home for royalty, the building does have a more sophisticated side: Two medieval kings (Philippe III and Philippe IV) were married...
The château started as a hunting lodge, built by King Louis VII in the 12th century, and the Bois de Vincennes was where the kings came for their sport. It wasn’t until the 18th century and the reign of Louis XV that the park was opened to the public; he laid out two long alleys through the park (Route de la Pyramide and Route du Champ de Manoeuvre...
The tourist trail in Paris can be exhausting in summer, which makes the city’s parks such a godsend. The Parc Floral is in the Bois de Vincennes, and is still the fourth largest Paris park in its own right. Coming from the château you’ll enter via a forest of oaks and cedars, which open out onto a tranquil space with flower gardens, ponds, a Japane...
You’ll have three motives for dropping by this outlandish building on the western side of the Bois de Vincennes: To drink in the otherworldly architecture, to reflect at the Immigration Museum and to appreciate the marine life at the aquarium in the basement. The palace is an art deco treasure, created for the 1931 Paris Colonial Exposition, with a...
If you want you could leave the western edge of the Bois de Vincennes and walk in a straight line through landscaped parkland all the way to the Bastille, an easy five kilometres to the east. What makes this possible is the La Coulée Verte, also known as the Promenade Plantée, which in 1993 turned a disused train viaduct into a remarkable linear pa...
In the neighbouring 20th Arrondissement is the cemetery that gets more visitors per year than any other in the world. You don’t need to be told that this is because of the multitude of cultural icons buried here. The roll-call is staggering and includes Oscar Wilder, Gertrude Stein, Marcel Proust, Chopin, Édith Piaf and, maybe the most popular of a...
A day out that will always be a hit with kids is the Zoo, and this compact one in the Bois de Vincennes has 180 different species. The park is visible from a long way off because of its 65-metre “Grand Rocher”, artificial rock, created in the 1930s. Animals are given the largest enclosures possible, allowing you to observe them in something resembl...
Another fun and educational idea for people with younger children is an urban farm, spread over five hectares, also in the Bois de Vincennes. All of the traditional crops and livestock of the Île-de-France region are cultivated and reared here, and as it’s a working farm there will be something different to see depending the season you visit. There...
You may not have horseracing in mind when you travel to Paris, but there’s a prominent track in the Bois de Vincennes. There are 153 meetings a year at the Hippodrome, but its lofty reputation comes from the Prix d’Amérique, which is run every January, and is the biggest harness race in the world. Harness racing is done with the jockey riding behin...
Get to the Louvre on Line 1 without needing to change. If you leave Paris without doing this one, it might be hard to escape the feeling that you’ve missed out. But it’s also true that you can’t come to the largest museum in the world on a whim. To avoid getting serious museum fatigue you need to be methodical and plot your route around the vast ga...
