"The 5 senses in the garden" is the theme of the "Rendez-vous aux Jardins" event organized by the French Ministry of Culture. It's a great opportunity to celebrate the arrival of spring and the fine weather, by visiting France's parks and gardens, which welcome visitors for a variety of events: demonstrations of know-how, guided tours, concerts and discussions with professionals, whether botanists, gardeners or landscape gardeners. In all, more than 2,200 parks and gardens across France are open to the public, including sites that are usually closed. A not-to-be-missed opportunity to commune with nature, fill up on culture and discover local nuggets. For more information, click here.
