【October 25 2015】In 1612, Marie de' Medici, the Queen of France and recent widow of Henry IV of France, commissioned the construction of a palace and grand gardens in Paris. Today, the Jardin du Luxembourg is a popular spot for locals and tourists alike, featuring not just well-manicured lawns and gardens, but finely crafted sculpture, fountains, and even a puppet theater. The French Senate meets at the Luxembourg Palace within the gardens, but the politicians won’t bother you while you take in the beautiful landscapes.Explore breathtaking Gallery from the HuluTrip homepage over the past 5 years..
