Carrousel Garden, Garden next to Louvre Museum in Paris, France.
The Carrousel Garden features stone paving paths that spread from the triumphal arch, with grass areas and structured hedges forming geometric patterns.
Napoleon commissioned the construction of this garden in 1805, creating it as part of his grand vision for transforming the imperial capital.
The garden displays eighteen bronze statues created by French sculptor Aristide Maillol, positioned strategically between the manicured hedges.
Visitors can enter the garden through multiple access points near the Louvre Museum, with direct connections to the surrounding museum district.
The radial design of stone pathways emanating from the Arc de Triomphe du Carrousel creates mathematical precision in the garden layout.
