Spend a relaxed day on Paris's eastern edge, where the city's largest green space meets one of Europe's most thoughtfully redesigned zoos. Begin at the Parc Zoologique de Paris, home to over 1,000 animals across five biozones — from Patagonian sea lions to Malagasy lemurs — all set around the iconic 65-meter Grand Rocher. After the zoo, step into the vast Bois de Vincennes for a stroll around Lac Daumesnil, where you can rent a rowboat, wander through centuries-old woodland, or simply sit beneath the trees. The zoo closes annually in January for maintenance, and buying tickets online in advance avoids the queue at the entrance.
