The Best Picnic Spots in Paris, According to Locals | Vogue

"A serene, history-soaked escape where the 17th‑century arcades open onto peaceful gardens; I love picnicking here because you can’t see or hear a car—just beautiful trees and kids playing while the palace whispers Revolution‑era stories." - Nicole Kliest

42 Best Things to Do in Paris

"The Palais-Royal complex is in some ways Paris in a nutshell: shops, cafés, art, history, architecture, bureaucracy, and spectacular gardens for people watching. And since it's all right across the street from the Louvre, you likely won't need to make a special trip. Don’t miss the Insta-famous Colonnes de Buren art installation in the inner courtyard." - Julia Eskins, Melissa Liebling-Goldberg

Where was “The Count of Monte Cristo” filmed? Behind the locations of Sam Claflin’s new period drama

Magnificently spread out and overlooking the Louvre, this 16th-century royal palace impresses with its grand exterior, spacious gardens, arched windows, and detailed interior ornamentation, making it an ideal filming spot to double as a palace and ballroom for major moments in The Count of Monte Cristo. Currently the seat of the French culture ministry and once the residence of Cardinal Richelieu before passing through the hands of Louis XIII, Louis XIV, and others, it’s also a regular backdrop for France-set Hollywood productions like The Da Vinci Code, Mission: Impossible – Fallout, Interview with the Vampire, and the Netflix hit Emily in Paris. - Shaurya Thapa

Even in the metropolis of Paris, the Domaine National du Palais-Royal is a very mysterious place. Especially when you visit the Domaine National du Palais-Royal at twilight, you feel as if a magical time is about to begin. I feel as if historical figures and actors of the past are emerging from the pillars. What a mysterious and poetic place!

Beautiful gardens year round and free to walk around the entire property. Right in the heart of the city it can easily be made part of a day walking tour just visiting landmarks. Guided online tours let you download audio information that you can use as you're exploring.

Very unusual, have been to Paris loads of times and never knew it was there. 5-minute walk from the Louvre, beautiful gardens and very peaceful, nice for photos

The Palais-Royal is a historic palace walkable near the Louvre Museum. Besides the stunning view of the palace, it has perfectly maintained & peaceful gardens complete with water fountains. The tree lined path is one of Paris’s most photographed iconic spots. Surrounding the garden, you'll find beautiful boutiques, cafes, and shops. In the courtyard of the former palace, they have these beautiful black & white striped columns which was installed by an artist. Very iconic & great for photos. Worth a visit to see the gardens, palace & art installations you don’t want to skip!

While we were in Paris, we visited the Domaine National du Palais-Royal, and it truly felt like a hidden gem right in the heart of the city. The gardens are peaceful and beautifully maintained, offering a picturesque escape from the bustling streets. The historic architecture and iconic black-and-white columns make it a perfect spot for photos and a quiet stroll. It’s definitely worth a visit, especially if you’re planning to go to the Louvre Museum—it’s just next door! I would have given it five stars if there were a few more amenities like cafes or clearer signage, but overall, it’s a lovely experience.

The Domaine National du Palais-Royal is a historic 17th-century complex with elegant arcades, serene gardens, and the famous black-and-white Colonnes de Buren. It blends classical architecture with contemporary art in a quiet yet lively setting. A lovely spot to stroll, relax by the fountains, and enjoy a hidden side of Paris.
