The Jardin des Tuileries is a park that combines historical elements and modern art. In 1553 Catherine de Medici had Italian-style gardens laid out here with beautiful, large fountains. From 1660 to 1664, however, the setting was redesigned by the Sun King’s personal architect, also known for designing the gardens of Versailles. The Jardin des Tuileries was one of the first parks to be opened to the public, and it quickly became a place where people like to stroll to keep up the so-called flaneur (stroll for stroll) mentality typical of the Parisian population. In fact, the setting is ideal not only for walking and picnicking, but it also turns out to be the green lung of the city is therefore a great escape from the hectic daily life of Paris.
