Les jardins

I remember reading about Jardins des Tuileries and Jardin du Luxembourg in my French textbooks. Visiting both these gardens has been a pleasant experience. Infact, I have realised now that visiting a garden and watching locals and tourists while grabbing a bite and relaxing your feet after a lot of sightseeing, is a great thing to do. The gardens, especially in Paris were a visual delight, not just for their beauty but also for the various experiences you could have there - free shows, locals playing a game of chess, children playing with boats, music in the background from one of the many street musicians, pet dogs and their masters enjoying the sun and book lovers, writers and painters doing their thing. It's nice to sit and watch sometimes.
