Roses in the "Jardin de Bagatelle"


In the Bois de Boulogne, not far from the inner city of Paris you can visit a very nice and peaceful garden called "le Jardin de Bagatelle". Not only will you see all kinds of vegetals and birds (including free-range, noisy peacocks!) but you can also visit one of the most beautiful rose gardens I have ever seen. Here I took a photo of a rose called Mrs Auriol, named after the wife of one of the French President of the Republic (Vincent Auriol, 1884-1966). By the way, there is also a restaurant in this garden, but I would not recommend it as the service is terrible (believe me, I am French, I know what I am talking about!). View original photo.

  5. Chouette, t'as enfin été à Bagatelle ! C'est vrai que c'est beau, hein ? Quant au resto, t'as raison, le service est pitoyable et les prix totalement délirants. Se foutent du monde. Bien dommage car l'endroit est vraiment merveilleux.

Sorry, but due to the amount of spam that I get I had to ban all anonymous comments. You can still comment, but you need to have one of the listed accounts (Google - your gmail address for instance - LiveJournal, Typepad...). If you don't have one it only takes a minute to open one. Sorry for the inconvenience, but that is the only solution I have.
