Parc Clichy-Batignolles – Martin Luther King, 17th arrondissement<br />

© Nathalie Geffroy<br />

The cherry blossom blooms around mid-<br />

April in Paris and several parks and gardens<br />

have rows of them including Parc Clichy-<br />

Batignolles – Martin Luther King, 17th<br />

arrondissement and Place Marcel Aymé.<br />

It’s just off Rue Norvins in Montmartre,<br />

where you’ll find a statue of Dutilleul AKA<br />

‘The Walker through the Walls.’ Bookworms<br />

will enjoy the cherry blossom tree in front<br />

of Shakespeare & Co. book shop near the<br />

Cathedral of Notre Dame. Parc Monceau,<br />

and Jardins des Plantes are also lovely.<br />

And if you’re a wisteria fan, head to Au<br />

Vieux Paris d’Arcole restaurant in rue<br />

Channoinesse, a stone’s throw from Notre<br />

Dame to enjoy the spring blooms that<br />

drape across the front. The wisteria here<br />

was planted in 1946 and has its own special<br />

license to grow large!<br />

Rue Mouffetard one of the oldest streets in Paris where there has been a market since the Middle Ages.<br />
