(Last Update: 06.09.2024) Tuileries Garden, Luxembourg Garden, Parc Monceau, Montsouris Park I think I have written all the priority parks that need to be written about many of the beautiful parks of Paris. Even Forest of Boulogne, Vincennes Forest, Saint Cloud Park Now that we have written our articles, we can say that it is time to go a little further out of the city for green space needs. That's why this chic suburb about half an hour outside of Paris Saint-Germain-en-LayeWherein Saint Germain's Laye ParkThis time we are in .
The first thing I have to say is that this place is in the center of Paris. Boulevard Saint Germain You should not confuse it with vicinity due to the similarity of its name. Saint Germain en Laye Park, RER-AIt is located in the chic Paris suburb of Saint Germain en Laye, one of three western terminus of . So, you get on the train and go to this area in zone 4 and get off at the last stop. When taking the train from the center of Paris, the last station you will arrive at is Saint Germain-en-Laye (San Germen an le) you should pay attention to. In this respect RER I recommend you read the article.
RER When you get off the train at the last stop and exit the station to the surface, you can see us on the left with all its majesty. Castle of Saint Germain en Laye welcomes. Just to the left of this magnificent building, we see the entrance gate of Saint Germain en Laye Park and throw ourselves in. Since the first area we enter the park is a circular pool with a fountain and a gravel road around it, it is not clear at first how green an area we are entering, but when we move forward in the park parallel to the castle, we realize how big a garden we have entered. Depending on the weather, lovers lying down in the giant meadow, sunbathers, picnickers and children running around there convey to us all the beauty and energy of life.
Castle of Saint Germain en LayeIf you walk as far as you can from the middle of the park parallel to , and come to the last point, you will be greeted by a magnificent terrace and a wonderful view. Famous landscape architect in French history André le Notre'a 1669 - 1674 From this two-plus kilometer terrace, which he built between Paris La Defense's appearance is very impressive. You feel like flying there, and as you fly, you can easily imagine how beautiful what you will see below is.
When you turn left from this point, there is a very nice country cafe at the end of the meadow, right where the trees begin. I don't know if this place is open in winter, I never thought of going in winter, but I think it is possible to eat and drink here from spring to autumn. If you wish, you can sit at the tables and eat something, or sit on the sun loungers and enjoy life while having a drink.
The menu of this cafe is not very rich, but sometimes it gets so crowded that you may have to wait a long time even to order. Already as a reader of Pariste.Net What will happen to you in cafes and restaurants in Paris Since you are familiar enough with the answer to the question, it has been a long time since you learned not to worry about these waiting times, right? All we have to do is enjoy life and enjoy the greenery and clean air we live in.
From this point you can leave Saint Germain en Laye Park and Saint Germain's Laye ForestIt is possible to get into , but I suggest you think carefully about this issue. This is such a forest that once you enter it, there is no end to it. When I first came to Paris, I would walk from one end to the other and feel very peaceful among those huge trees. Of course, it is a very enjoyable activity, but this walk can take you all day because the forest does not end with walking and walking, especially if you have to ask "wait, what is there, wait, what is there?" If you start turning left and right, you will find the evening, I'm telling you :)
Still, it wouldn't hurt to take a stroll in and out of the forest. If your intention is to hike, of course, continue, but while you are here, go back and do it now. National Archaeological Museum one Castle of Saint Germain en Layeand the chic Paris suburb Saint-Germain-en-LayeI suggest you take a look around. Moreover, on Sunday, a wonderful market is held in the city square. I suggest you take a look around there before the afternoon. Maybe it's best to visit that market first and then walk around the park.
You can have your lunch or afternoon coffee at the cafe in the park, is it obvious? You can also take the number 10 bus from here. Alexandre Dumas' house, Castle of Monte Cristo – Château de Monte Cristo It is available, it might be nice to see it too. Another castle nearby Malmaison Castle – Château de Malmaison and the beautiful park right next to it Bois-Préau It is also one of the places worth seeing. Also Grand Lac des Ibiswith its magnificent hiking trails and dreamy houses, including Le Vésinet – Le Pecq But there is no escape there either.
Saint Germain en Laye Park opens at 08:00 every day of the year. It is open until 21:30 in the evening in summer and 17:00 in winter and can be entered and visited free of charge. Maybe not on your first visit to Paris, but on subsequent visits. Alternative Paris Tour Program It is among the places you should see and visit.
There are so many places worth seeing in Paris that the sightseeing never ends, summer or summer. Sometimes, when I get tired of writing, a nice and supportive comment from you gives me strength again. Don't worry, as long as I have this energy, I will continue to write about Paris and share what I know with you. I would be very happy if you share the articles you like on your social media accounts and make more people aware of these articles. Because life is better when shared.
Pleasant trips, pleasant discoveries.

Thank you very much for your nice wishes.
Hello Mr. Ahmet,
We haven't been there yet, but we added it to our list of places to visit as a family, thank you. Since you went there today (31.01.2019), may we ask, is the country cafe you mentioned in your article open in winter as well? Enjoy your work.
Hello,
The weather was so cold yesterday that I couldn't go to the edge of the park :) Instead, I chose to sit in a cafe in Saint Germain en Laye market.
Personally, I don't think it will be open in the winter.
We went here by mistake, thinking we were going to Saint Germaine Boulevard. But everything is destiny; We had the chance to eat and drink onion soup at a restaurant called Le Soubise :)))
Oh yes, it is possible to confuse the two. Fortunately, you have seen beautiful places... Onion soup is also very nice...
