Grand Rond, Urban park in Toulouse, France
The Grand Rond extends across a circular layout with pathways leading to a central fountain, surrounded by mature trees and seasonal flower displays.
The garden emerged in the 18th century as part of an urban development project connecting the city center of Toulouse with its rural outskirts.
Multiple statues inspired by mythology decorate the park grounds, while a traditional bandstand hosts musical performances throughout the year.
Visitors can reach the Grand Rond through Metro Line B at Carmes station, with varying seasonal opening hours between 8 AM and 9 PM.
The park maintains several rare tree species, including the Cedar of Himalaya, Tulip tree, and Osage Orange, forming a diverse botanical collection.

Toulouse offers numerous locations for photography beyond its main attractions. The Renaissance courtyards of Hôtel d'Assézat, the gardens of Raymond VI, and the converted water tower of Château d'Eau present architectural interest. The Garonne riverbanks, including Quai de la Daurade and Port Saint-Sauveur, provide water views. Historic buildings like Hôtel Dieu Saint-Jacques and La Grave show the city's architectural heritage. Gardens and parks such as Grand Rond and Prairie des Filtres add natural elements to urban photographs.
