This second day in Orléans trades the medieval old town for science, contemporary art, and green spaces. Begin at the MOBE, a renovated natural history museum where 1,200 specimens and interactive stations bring the Loire Valley's ecosystems to life across five floors. Continue to the FRAC Centre-Val de Loire, housed in a converted military depot topped by Jakob + MacFarlane's striking biomorphic glass structures — all exhibitions here are free. Cross the elegant 18th-century George V Bridge for sweeping views over the Loire, then unwind among the tropical greenhouses and heritage rose gardens of the Orléans Botanical Garden. End the day at the vast Parc Floral de la Source, where 35 hectares of themed gardens surround the mysterious resurgence of the Loiret river and a tropical butterfly greenhouse. The FRAC opens only at 14:00 (closed Monday–Tuesday), and the MOBE is closed on Mondays — plan for Wednesday through Sunday.
