Keep one clear walking thread
Luxembourg Garden and Saint-Germain-des-Prés form a short, legible walk. Bookshop streets, galleries and quays provide three ways to extend the outing without leaving the Left Bank.
Check the garden independently
A neighbourhood walk does not establish that all garden gates or nearby interiors are open. Check the entrance and hours of the garden if your programme depends on it.
