(Last Update: 11.09.2024) When you look at Paris from a high place, what you see is a city built by stone, building by building. However, Paris is green; It can be understood by walking around inside rather than looking at it from above. Aside from the giant horse chestnuts that surround the city and decorate the boulevards, countless parks, large and small, give this city its characteristic greenery.
Some of them are well-known and famous, and therefore also touristic parks - and they fully deserve this fame and attention - while others, although they are a part of daily life, seem to be left in the middle of nowhere, waiting to be discovered. However, they are not at all left behind from others. In this article, we get to know one more of such parks. Georges Brassens Park – Parc Georges-Brassens (park jorj brassan or pağk joğj bğasan)
15th, a district in Paris that I don't visit very often. boroughThere is an interesting story behind how I came across Georges Brassens Park, which took me until October 2016 to discover because it is located in . It is located on the old railway track that once surrounded Paris.The Little Belt) One day, when we left home to explore the remaining regions, our route was 15. boroughWhen we fell into the section in , while walking here and there, we came across this place at an unexpected moment.
Therefore, I do not particularly recommend that you go to Georges Brassens Park. The Little BeltOne day while you are exploring, I can recommend you to go and check it out when you come across it while walking in the section between Balard and Porte de Vanves. Choosing a hotel to stay in Paris Even if you choose this region, it will definitely be one of the ideal places to take a breather. I'm sure you'll encounter beautiful views depending on the season.
You will start from Balard The Little Belt Since the tunnel you will encounter at the last point of your walk will most likely be closed, you need to go up the elevators on the side, then enter the garden of the kindergarten "Ecole Maternelle" across the street from the right, continue on the side path, cross the street you will reach, and enter Georges Brassens Park from the entrance at the corner. Arriving by public transport for M12 metro of the line Porte de Versailles or M13 metro You can get off at the Porte de Vanves station of the line. Also T3a tram It is also possible to get off at the Brancion station of the line and reach the park right behind. Now whichever you choose.
Of course we very lucky people The day we discovered Georges Brassens Park because we were The man who gave his name to the park lived between 22 October 1922 and 29 October 1981. famous French singer, composer, songwriter ve poet George Brassens We came across a special event held once a year. George Brassens songs were playing on the stage, everyone, young and old, was dancing, stands were set up, there was a festive atmosphere. Of course, I don't know if you will come across any other events when you go in other periods, but I'm sure it's very nice here when it's quiet.
About 9 hectares The area where Georges Brassens Park is located 1860from 's Vineyard used as; 1894Part of it from slaughterhouse ve horse farm served as. Even today, there are vineyards in a very small area. The slaughterhouse existed until 1974, but was removed because it caused a bad appearance and pollution in the city. of the region It was designed as a park and opened to the public in 1985.It took place in… Some of the buildings belonging to the slaughterhouse in the park are still standing. In fact, the old market building at the other end of the park is now a shopping mall established on weekends. Secondhand Books Bazaar – Le Marché du Livre Ancien It is used as; I definitely recommend you to see it.
The pool and landscaping in the middle of the park, areas where children can play, are designed as a miniature but seriously risky area. climbing area, with its walking track, camellias and meadow grass, is yours and yours in every season. for your children I think it could be an interesting place. Especially the donkey cart statue in the middle of the park is very cute. Also, the two bull statues on the north side, which is the main entrance to the park, are quite magnificent. The cafes and restaurants on this side are also very nice, but the lunch hours between 12:00 and 14:00 are quite restrictive; You can't eat as you please :)What will happen to you in cafes and restaurants in Paris"Those who read my article know...
After visiting Georges Brassens Park The Little Belt You can continue your tour, if it's the weekend awesome next door Secondhand Books Bazaar – Le Marché du Livre AncienYou can take a look at.
Pleasant trips, pleasant discoveries.

Mr. Ahmet, I asked my question (in a different form) under the topic of hotels, I think you did not see it. We will have around 10 hours of time during the transfer to Barcelona, can you have any suggestions to make use of this very limited time. Thank you in advance..
Hello, yes, your message was in my list of messages waiting to be answered. I was going to reply to it at the first opportunity, but when you sent the second message, I thought it was urgent and replied immediately. If you wish, you can find the answer under the hotels article, I will not repeat it here.
Have a nice holiday in advance.
First of all, thank you very much for your articles. We are in Paris next week. I wonder that there are no warm rooms, houses or places in the English. Let's see what it is like in Paris. Let's see if the rooms are heated.
For example, it is very hot in Russia.
Hello Ms. Semra,
First of all, thank you for your message and valuable comment.
You touched on a very good topic. The French find a maximum room temperature of 21 degrees normal, even 18 degrees is normal for them, but for us, 24-26 degrees is generally normal.
If the place you stay in is a hotel and it is air-conditioned, you will be comfortable and you can adjust the temperature of your room yourself, but if you stay in a place with a central system, there is a high probability that you will feel cold.
I wish you a happy holiday in advance.
