Les Jardins de Paris: Parc de la Bagatelle

The Parc de la Bagatelle is probably Paris' loveliest park, known for its flower and thematic gardens. A water lily pond pays homage to French painter Monet, and a chateau and orangerie feature Chopin concerts in the summer. The rose garden is the park's most visited spot with 10,000 roses of 1,200 different varieties blooming in June.
