The Great Gallery of Evolution
In the very pretty setting of Garden of plants, the Great Gallery of Evolution, A huge hall surrounded on three balconies lit by a canopy of 1000 square meters, houses 7000 specimens of the terrestrial worlds and aquatic. They do not speak anymore but tell us a lot!
A fascinating museum
- The children will discover 350 mammals, 450 birds, 360 fish and a hundred naturalized reptiles and amphibians
- A very successful scenography with sound and light games
- Rare and impressive pieces such as the rhinoceros of the menagerie of the Château de Versailles, which belonged to Louis XV and Louis XVI
- Do not miss the room dedicated to extinct animals or endangered
Good plan, save by buying 2 attractions at the same time
To do in the Jardin des Plantes

To eat in the area
We recommend the restaurant The beautiful plantsPerfect with children (children's menu, terrace when the weather is nice). And it's open on Sundays! And for snacks, the inevitable Café Maure of the Mosque of Parisfor its oriental pastries and its exotic setting.
