Gorgeous park, free entrance! There are a lot of spots where you can do a little picnic, or to sit and enjoy the peace. Incredible enough, at the heart there is a very big greehouse which contains tropical plants from different regions. It is divided in different sections and these sections are regulated independently in heat and humidity. (Make sure you can easily remove your jacket...you have been warned....). All of this hidden behind the simple name: Gardens of Caen. Very much recommend!! **Locals: there were many adults and children there, so it must be a favourite...

Very cool garden, inside and out. The interior greenhouse is very well designed to feel like you are meandering through climate zones, and the educational gardens outside have a wide variety. I saw that they are keeping poison sumac inside a cage; this is funny to me as an American who lives were poison sumac is common. It is irritating to the skin, but not dangerous enough to...

Free access to the park, (botanical) gardens and greenhouse with tropical and exotic plants. There is also a giant sequoia tree (near the botanical institute). Perfect place for a picnic or a moment of rest. It is a short walk from Caen Castle (less than a kilometer) or from city center (bit more than a kilometer). We enjoyed our visit here and...

Magnifique, un parc incroyable, à ne pas manquer! Des reliefs très bien utilisés avec des beaux escaliers, des escarpements rocheux, une cascade... Des bacs d'eau reliés en descente, avec des poissons, mon fils a adoré les suivre et les voir se cacher sous les nénuphars et les rocher. Plein de panneaux nominatifs sur les arbres et plantes, une partie jardin botanique, une autre de serre tropicale ( attention ouverture 13h30), le tout est gratuit, c'est une chance inouïe. Le parc botanique de Tours est bien moins intéressant par exemple. Et ces arbres centenaires et leur ombre, c'est une bénédiction. On a tous adoré. Bonus : 2 aires de jeux pour les enfants ( fermés encore aujourd'hui 3 juin 2020, et un grand bac à sable collectif ( ouvert), prévoyez seaux et râteaux vous passerez un moment agréables avec les enfants. Visitez-le absolument.
