Yesterday, we all had lunch outside in the Jardin du Luxembourg. We went to the Monoprix and purchased fruit, cookies, sushi, drinks, sandwich ingredients, etc. and took it to the beautiful gardens. It was winter and they were still a lovely place to have a picnic, so I can't imagine how lovely it looks in the spring and summer when the trees are covered in leaves and flowers are blooming.
The Jardin du Luxembourg is the second largest public park in Paris, covering 224, 500 square meters. It is located in the 6th arrondissement (arrondissements are sections of the city. Paris is divided into twenty). The park is the garden of the French Senate, which is housed in the Luxembourg Palace.
