Petite Ceinture du 15e, Linear urban park in 15th arrondissement, France.

The Petite Ceinture du 15e extends for 1.3 kilometers through Paris, featuring preserved railway tracks alongside walking paths and native vegetation.

This section of the former Petite Ceinture railway, which operated from 1852 to 1934, was transformed into a public park space in August 2013.

The park incorporates art installations and performance spaces while maintaining the industrial heritage through preserved railway infrastructure and architectural elements.

Visitors can access the elevated walkway through multiple entry points with elevators and stairs, including the main entrance at Place Balard near metro stations.

The park houses over 220 plant and animal species within its urban corridor, maintaining the original railway tracks for potential future transportation use.
