Jardin des Plantes

A while ago, we decided to visit Jardin des Plantes in the 5th arrondissement on the left bank. As the name suggests, this is a park consisting of garden plants. The Paris Museum of Natural History is located at the southern end of the garden.

We did not visit the museum this time, but we did have a delightful day hiking through the park, looking at and photographing the plants. Here are some of those photos.
