Guided tour of the Japanese garden

During 1 hour, you will enjoy a Zen promenade in the Japanese Garden, which is labelled a Remarkable Garden.
Located in the heart of the Compans-Caffarelli park, the Pierre Baudis Japanese garden surprises by its exoticism. A true invitation to meditation and rest, it is a synthesis of the existing gardens in Kyoto, Japan, built between the 14th and 16th centuries.
It is composed of all the characteristic elements: a staging of the mineral world, the plant world and the aquatic world decorated with typical decorative elements.
