Parc de la Colombière, 17th century public park in Dijon, France
The Parc de la Colombière extends across a vast area with long avenues lined by 6,000 lime trees and symmetrical flowerbeds following French garden design principles.
A student of renowned landscape architect Le Nôtre designed this park during the 17th century, incorporating elements of classical French formal gardens and mathematical precision.
The Temple of Love from the 17th century stands within the park grounds, representing the architectural preferences and social customs of French aristocracy.
Visitors can access the park daily from 7:30 AM until sunset, with specific activities like donkey walks available during school holidays from 14:00 to 18:30.
The remains of the ancient Roman road Agrippa intersect the park grounds, connecting the classical past with present-day recreational spaces.
