The garden of many colors

The André Citroen Park is a modern park known (among other things) for its two large greenhouses (one with tropical plants and the other with Mediterranean orange trees), its Generali balloon (to discover Paris at 150m above the ground) and its water jets in summer when it's very hot (kids love it). And it's the only park in Paris that has a view on the Seine.
