A quiet oasis in old town Montpelier. Founded in 1593, this is the oldest botanical garden in France. It started as a collection of medicinal plant for the school of medicine. Now the park is open to the public. Closes at 8pm.

Apparently the oldest botanical garden in Europe! Not a huge space but the variety of planting and spaces is impressive. Lots of benches in quiet shady spots to read a book or have some lunch (seems very popular with the locals as a lunch spot) One downside - the gardens don't open until 12 which seems quite late (indeed there was a queue of people waiting to enter when I arrived at the entrance at 11:55) Definitely recommend - as this is so close to the cathedral and place de peyrou very easy to do all 3 in a couple of hours

Beautiful terraced area to sit out and enjoy a pint, a cocktail or even a nice chilled frappe. Well worth a visit to come and sit in this peaceful area of this busy city. :)

this park was stunning in its natural beauty as well it’s level of splendour i also thought that this area of Montpellier has a very rich history with the reign of king Louis IV who spent a lot of his time at this exact park taking in its beauty but if there’s one thing that i think could be improved in this park i think it would be the animates that the park has to offer as well as some of the equipment is a bit run down and rusty
