In spring, great opportunities for outings bloom. Following the Night of Museums, it’s time for Rendez-Vous aux Jardins, a charming cultural event usually held in early June. During this occasion, botanical heritage takes center stage, inspiring curious visitors and enthusiasts to explore the many events scattered across the Paris region. Whether through guided tours, free workshops, or special openings, it’s a wonderful chance to discover the treasures of Île-de-France. Mark your calendar—the next edition is scheduled from June 5 to 7, 2026
The Seine-et-Marne département plays the game, inviting us to discover both unmissable nuggets and little-known places. In the town of Couilly-Pont-Aux-Dames, strollers can conquer the Maison de Retraite des Artistes, classified as a Remarkable Ile-de-France Heritage Site and built at the request ofactor Constant Coquelin in 1903. Designed by Art Nouveau architectRené Binet, the building stands on the site of a former abbey, and features a bucolic park well worth a visit.
