The Tuileries garden is the most central park in Paris. It stretches its "à la française" alleys and lawns along the Seine river from the Louvre museum to the Concorde square.
Designed in 1664 by Le Notre, the gardener of king of France Louis the 14th and the Versailles park designer, the Tuileries garden is spread with basins and statues.
Recently renovated and totally separated from car traffic, the Tuileries garden is part of a spectacular and historic perspective from the Louvre palace to the Arc de Triomphe on a straight line which includes the Champs Elysées and the Concorde square.
A centuries long effort by the kings of France to structure and embellish their Louvre palace and the city of Paris.
