Le Jardin Extraordinaire

Opens Tuesday at 8:30 AM

Chantenay, Nantes

🌿"speechless while wandering around — keeping Jules Verne's alive ❤️"
🌿"easy to forget you're in the middle of a city!"
🪜177 steps up the cliff face to four viewpoints

Stumble into Jules Verne's imagination at this converted granite pit, where a microclimate 4 degrees warmer than the Loire below coaxes banana trees and giant ferns into thriving. A 25-metre waterfall plunges between century-old ivy, and a steel staircase by La Machine's designer winds past four belvederes with panoramic river views.
