Tucked away within a maze of narrow streets far is an oasis of peace few people are aware of – the Jardin Saint-Gilles-Grand-Veneur, with its magnificent view of the facade of the Hôtel du Grand Veneur townhouse.
Those in the know come here to get away from the city’s bustle and settle down for a quiet chat on stone benches in the lovely rose arbour. A serene refuge for couples.
