Luxembourg Gardens

The formal Luxembourg gardens, masterminded by Marie de Medici. It is strictly forbidden to sit on the grass, as you can see by how well it's kept haha. There are, however, many moveable metal chairs to sit down on. The Palais de Luxembourg, which is now a museum, is the building you see in the pictures.


You can see the dome of the Panthéon in the distance.



The octagonal lake.


This is a monument to Eugene Delacroix, by Jules Dalou. The three allegorical figures represents Time, Art, and Glory.
