As you know, in March, the sakura season—known as cherry blossom season—is at its peak.This is the perfect opportunity to fully enjoy this spectacle, which is at once beautiful, fragile, and fleeting, as you stroll through the city’s most beautiful parks and gardens. Among the most impressive green spaces, Billancourt Park in Boulogne-Billancourt transforms into a true fairy tale when spring arrives. Spanning 7 hectares, it remains, however, relatively unknown to Parisians…
Billancourt Park: a Garden of Eden near Paris surrounded by cherry blossoms
No, it’s not just Parc de Sceaux that’s covered in cherry blossoms. Hidden in the Hauts-de-Seine lies a 7-hectare park still largely unknown to most Parisians: Billancourt Park. Starting in mid-March, this splendid spot looks strikingly like a Japanese garden. Its delicate and refined cherry blossoms offer a breathtaking spectacle.
And right now is the perfect time to see them. Completely free, Billancourt Park lets you admire these magnificent flowers without booking a time slot or buying a ticket. Under a canopy of powdery pink, the park offers a breathtaking view of the Seine Musicale and Île Seguin, which also features a beautiful green space. With over 200 trees and 7,000 shrubs, it’s a true green lung for the neighborhood! Fitness enthusiasts will appreciate its 2-kilometer fitness trail, suitable for everyone.
A very pretty park that we recommend you visit soon because, as you know, cherry blossoms usually only last a few weeks…
