A day at the Tuileries Gardens
In August, the light is already leaning towards autumn and taking on the tints of late summer. It's the ideal time for a quiet walk in that romantic haven of peace and calm, the Tuileries Gardens.

And so, it was planned; Louis and Victoire would organise a special trip for a beautiful August day. They spent a lot of time on the internet first trying to choose the best and fullest programme so, they're quite proud of themselves when they present the results of their searches to Marie and Carl – a trip to discover the capital's most original glaciers.
The July 14th French national holiday is an experience to savour in Paris. The festive spirit reigns from the morning and there are lots of exciting activities throughout the day.
This is the crazy bet of Marie Burgundy. The challenge: to discover all of Paris as a family between 10 am and 5 pm. A daring challenge perhaps, but a game worth playing. If she succeeds, Marie wins a gourmet tea time at The Burgundy Bar. What could be more motivating?
On June 18, the verdant Chantilly racecourse hosts the prestigious Prix de Diane. It’s a double, a parade of fillies – and a parade of hats, as visitors compete to become Miss Diane, the day’s most elegant racegoer.

On Monday 22 May, the French Open Tennis Tournament begins on the red clay of the Roland-Garros Stadium. It’s a splendid time of year when the gods and goddesses of the stadium, the snowshoeing giants, the virtuosos of the little yellow ball meet once again.

French perfume is the finest in the world, yet, until recently, perfume did not have its own museum in Paris. The situation was rectified a few months back, last December to be precise, when the Grand Musée du Parfum opened its doors at 73 rue du Faubourg Saint-Honoré. The setting - a splendid mansion that has also housed Louis Roederer Champagne and luxury fashion brand, Christian Lacroix. This prestigious address is just a few minutes’ walk from the Burgundy Paris.
