Parc de Bercy

The park is located near the Seine, in an area that was formerly used for shipping storage and canal transport; it is situated near apartment buildings, quaint shops, and cafes. The park is geometrically divided, offering areas for children, gardeners, plant lovers, and those who would like to walk or stroll. Water features blend into sylvan scenes; creative park constructs and elegant bridges join segments of the park that are separated by a boulevard. There are areas for sports and an education center. Located in the center of the park is the Palais Omnisports, which is surrounded by grass on all sides and blends in with the landscape.
