The jardin du Luxembourg is located inside Paris in the 6e arrondissement (district) quite in the center.
It's a real nice place to have a rest or walk around. There are also tennis courts, playgrounds for kids , in the central water basin, kids can play with boats. There are old fashion italian puppet shows with the famous italian Guignol. You have places to drink, etc....
Of course the architecture and the garden "à la française" are wonderful.
The palais du Luxembourg is the place where the French Senate meets.Next to it, there's "the petit Luxembourg" , residence of the President of the Senate. There are many art exhibition in the Luxembourg museum as well. The is also a huge green house with, for example, 400 different species of orchids....
Having such a place quite in the center of Paris is very nice.
