Under the shade of the Institut de France’s dome, a small garden offers a sculpted homage to the literary soul of the 6th arrondissement, through striking limestone benches where you can read in the shadow of the cherry trees. A little secret that only reveals itself to passersby who aren’t in too much of a hurry.
In the heart of Saint-Germain-des-Prés, Square Gabriel Pierné is the place to be in spring. In April, cherry blossom lights up this buccolic spot where you can relax. This little corner of paradise, hidden behind the Institut de France, becomes the scene of a fascinating, ephemeral nature, a must-see.
