When the mercury starts to soar, everyone has only one thing on their mind: cooling off. So we head to the nearest swimming pools, water parks, and beaches, and find some relief however we can by enjoying a delicious ice cream. For those who love green spaces, we’ve found an adorable park for you, entirely surrounded by water, tucked away in the 17th arrondissement. With its mini waterfall, stream, and scenery worthy of the most beautiful English gardens, it’s hard to imagine anything more charming.
A little-known secret park in Paris surrounded by water
Nestled in the heart of Paris’s 17th arrondissement, the Square des Batignolles offers magnificent and varied scenery! There, you can admire a pretty rocky waterfall, a grotto, and a beautiful pond surrounded by plants where swans, ducks, and red carp live happily. You’ll also find stunning 200-year-old plane trees and various other tree species, many of which are exotic. A real feast for the eyes!

A small stream runs through the park , providing a refreshing breeze on hot days! Designed in the English garden style, the park is gently rolling and will almost make you feel like you’re in the English countryside.
In short, a truly magnificent park, perfect for everyone, to discover in the coming days.
