Escape the city centre to the 181-hectare Domaine de Sceaux, where André Le Nôtre's 17th-century gardens unfold across formal parterres, a 1,140-metre Grand Canal, and wooded groves designed for Louis XIV's finance minister. Inside the 19th-century château, the Musée du Domaine displays paintings, ceramics, and decorative arts from the Île-de-France region spanning three centuries. Two original structures survive from the 1670s–80s: Jules Hardouin-Mansart's Orangerie and Claude Perrault's Pavillon de l'Aurore, with its ceiling fresco by Charles Le Brun. The park is free to enter year-round, and in spring the estate's 144 Japanese cherry trees make this France's premier Hanami destination. The museum is closed on Mondays and opens at 14:00 from March to October.
