Parc Micaud, Public garden along Doubs River in Besançon, France.
The park stretches across 3 hectares and features 400 trees, including magnolias, beech trees, tulip trees, and paulownias along the riverside path.
Jean-Agathe Micaud, mayor of Besançon from 1835 to 1843, established this garden in 1843 to transform marshlands into an urban green space.
The nineteenth-century music kiosk in the park continues to serve as a central point for musical performances and community gatherings throughout the year.
The park connects to the city center through tram lines T1 and T2, with multiple entrances and paths suitable for walking and recreational activities.
A network of underground passages links the park to the Isle of Sparrows neighborhood, creating a continuous green corridor through the urban landscape.
