Nature/outdoor
The Serres d'Auteuil, dating to the 1890s, house a rotating collection of tropical and Mediterranean plants across several ornate glass greenhouses in the 16th arrondissement. Reviewers particularly recommend it as a romantic or photogenic stop, less crowded than the city's larger, more famous gardens.

What people say
"This place is perfect for a date (or a family day : although kids might find it boring in the greenhouses and make too much noise/try to walk in the fish pond --> seen that). The atmosphere is great, quiet compared to the busy Paris streets, and the plants and descriptions are interesting for sure. Entrance is free Closure is at 6:30 indeed For the 2 secondary greenhouses (not the main one), they open only when the gardener is here (it was closed for us, which was a shame). After this, you could go to "bois de boulogne" for a walk, or back to city center with metro 9 or rer C (beware some rer C stations are closed recently)"
