Is it strange that I'm reviewing a park? Nevermind.
Jardin Anne Frank is hidden away - you have to go in a cul-de-sac to find it. Need a clue? Follow the signs to the doll museum ("Musée de la poupée"). I have never been there mind you, dolls are way too scary.
Lots of benches, a lovely alleyway under am arbour (is that the right word? some kind of metal or wooden structure that covers the alley and has lovely flowers/plants on it), and a little vegetable patch in the back. You can barely hear the noises from the very busy main street, even though you're literally a stone's throw away form Beaubourg. I think they do tours because I saw a bunch of tourists listening to a guide last time I went there (see how good I am at figuring out clues?). Which might be good if you want to actually know more about this history of this lovely garden, because the only thing I can tell you as that its name comes from its chestnut tree. Apparently, it grew from a graft from the one Anne Frank used to see from her window.
