Parc de Bourran, Historical park in Mérignac, France.

The 17-hectare Parc de Bourran features a central lake with islands, romantic bridges, and a grotto surrounded by century-old trees from three continents.

Landscape designer Louis-Lucy Le Breton created the park in 1884, incorporating elements that transformed the former agricultural estate into formal gardens.

The park contains educational botanical paths, a pedagogical vegetable garden, an apiary, and an orchard preserving traditional fruit tree varieties.

The park opens daily from 8 AM, with closing times varying by season: 6:30 PM in winter, 7:30 PM in spring and fall, and 9 PM in summer.

The park's water system, including the channeled Devèze stream and retention basin, helps prevent flooding in neighboring Bordeaux districts.
