Paris parks

From: Paris Travel Resources

Parc des Buttes-Chaumont parisforvisitors.com
The most romantic park in Paris is built on the site of a former gypsum quarry and execution ground.

The Tuileries Gardens - a short dark history
"It is not in the fall of the Bastille but in the slaughter in the Tuileries that the French Revolution made its mark," says Jacqueline Donnelly. But today, "lovers meet, and children play," and life goes on.

Jardins et Palace du Luxembourg
Sarah Wilson of Pomona College gives a short introduction to the park that's featured in the photo above.

NOTE: Also see the theme-park links on my Paris for Children page.
