Sign that spring has arrived: these little pink petals are starting to bloom all over the capital. But to get your vitamin shot of colors, head to these 5 Parisian spots where you can see the most beautiful blooming magnolias.

Spring is our favorite time of year for many reasons, but one of the top ones has to be the blossoming trees. In Paris, where we all long for a bit of nature, seeing a tree burst into color against the gray backdrop is truly a cause for celebration. After suggesting some places to enjoy the Hanami cherry blossom season, here's a fantastic list of spots to admire blooming magnolias. These delicate pink petals bloom from February to April, filling the air with a sweet, fragrant aroma. It's the perfect time to snuggle up in a flowery paradise at these lovely Parisian locations.


Parc Floral de Paris

The name itself gives it away: this park is a prime spot in Paris to welcome back the sun! Tucked away in the peaceful 12th arrondissement, within the Bois de Vincennes, you'll find an abundance of magnificent magnolias blooming every year, offering a slice of heaven right in the city. Take a leisurely stroll and bask in the magic. 🚶‍♂️🌟🚶‍♀️.

The Garden of the Palais-Royal

This time right in the heart of the city, just a stone's throw from the Louvre, we find the legendary Palais-Royal Garden. A place we love to visit in all seasons, taking care to avoid the hordes of tourists who occupy the Buren columns. But it is especially in the spring that this garden shines. With a thousand lights, and these lovely blooming magnolias in the middle of the arcades and typical Parisian buildings, it's a true hidden gem in the midst of the bustling city. A must-visit for anyone looking for a peaceful and charming escape in the heart of Paris.

Another central park: the famous Tuileries garden. Avoided all year by true Parisians, it's a must-visit spot as the sunny days return for lovers of colorful flowers. Some magnolias sneak into the scenery, amidst the grand alle.

The Seine Riverbanks

It's almost like dipping our feet in the water as we admire the blooming magnolias, especially near the Hôtel de Ville. To ensure we don't miss them, a quick stop is essential, even at the jardin des Combattants de la Neuve, a small green oasis where we can enjoy moments of tranquility under the sun surrounded by beautiful flowers. 🌸🌼💐🌺


Le Jardin du Luxembourg

Our favorite spot on the Left Bank, the Luxembourg Gardens always dazzle us, summer and winter. A big magnolia tree is hiding inside, in full bloom, as soon as March arrives. It's up to you to walk, run, or stroll to find it...
