This magnificent 54-hectare park to the south of the city was designed by landscape gardener Alphan. Water is a major feature here, with beautiful ponds and lakes throughout. An 18th century country house stands in the heart of this open space, complimented beautifully by a garden "à la française" and a 19th century landscaped park. Other points of interest include botanical gardens with a rose garden and tropical greenhouse. Children love coming here to feed the ducks, take the go-carts for a spin, or watch the model boats sailing on the lake. Admission is free.disabled access.
