One of Paris' biggest green areas, great for a jog (real cardio!), or a sunday picnic. The lake has black swans and a small carousel plays jazz bands at times. Poney rides for kids.

This bakery is a bit further away but the bread (take the tradition not the baguette) and desserts are simply amazing ! And it's right next to the farmers' market so great for a stop on Sundays
