Parc Montsouris

The Parc Montsouris is mysterious. It is the spot where the legendary giant Isoire roamed and a cemetery of sorts, where bones from overrun cemeteries were piled. It isn’t all frightening though; quite the opposite actually. The Paris Observatory that dates back to the Napoleonic era as well as a meteorological observatory are nestled among winding paths, small streams, and lush green spots.
