Parc de la Villette

The Villette park, the largest green space in Paris, stretches from the Villette gate to the Pantin gate and is crosses by the Ourcq canal. This unique cultural location, where slaughterhouses had been in 1867, was finished in the year 2000. The area is constituted mainly by the Villette park, the 'Grande halle' for expositions, the Zenith room for shows, the 'Music City', the 'Géode' and the 'City of Sciences and Industry' that groups a handful of activities, mixing culture with scientific leisure.

The park, family-friendly and with a great diversity of workshops for children, has been conceived on the principles of openness and boundless experimentation. Here, you can go from one universe to another in a few minutes thanks to the merging expositions, concerts, circuses and festivals. As a park historian has put it, 'it puts in action the human evolution and, likewise, offers a cinematic stroll among a multitude of thematic gardens (bamboos, mirrors, dunes, acrobatics, dragons...). A joyful atmosphere goes with the surrounding nature and everything is punctuated with an array of buildings called 'Folies'. These 26 contemporary 'folies' (which roughly translates as 'crazy things') amuse and set the place in rhythm, scattered in the fashion of the old Roman gardens with little mansions colored in lively red.

Have a beautiful family day in the Villette park and benefit from the Pariscityvision.com Cruise and Illuminations tour for a perfect end of the day.
