When you’re in need of fresh air, Paris has an amazing variety of vast parks, flowering gardens, hidden squares, and bucolic forests within the city limits. Some of the city’s largest — and often most peaceful — green spaces are its historic cemeteries. Finally, don’t forget about the city’s iconic river and canals, where Parisians love to enjoy al fresco picnics and entertainment.
