The Chaillot Hill, with its superb position overlooking the Seine, was the site chosen by Napoleon for "the biggest and most extraordinary" palace that was to be built for his son - but by the time of his downfall only a few ramparts had been completed. Today, the monumental Palais de Chaillot, with its two massive curved wings, stands on the site. From the terrace in front of the Palais there is a magnificient view over the Trocadéro gardens and the Seine to the Eiffel Tower.
The shady Jardins du Trocadéro sloping down to the rive from the Palais de Challot were planted after the 1937 Universal Exhibition.
Here is the largest fountain in Paris and the fine wievs of the river and the Eiffel Tower.
More recent Paris
gardens eschew formality in favour of wilder planting, multiple levels,
maze-like paths, children's gardens and modern sculpture. Typical are the
gardens in front of the Forum des Halles and the Parc André Citroen.
