Where to see the Cherry Blossoms in Paris

My favorite place to see the cherry blossoms in Paris is at the Trocadero Garden and Champs de Mars. Who doesn’t love cherry blossoms and the beautiful Eiffel Tower? What is great about the cherry blossoms around the Trocadero garden is that the trees are in bloom at different times throughout the Spring. One of my favorite things to do in Paris, is when the cherry blossoms are in bloom, is to pack a picnic, sit under the cherry blossom trees, and enjoy time with friends outside with a glass of wine. 

Jardin Des Plantes is a beautiful place to get photos of the cherry blossoms in Paris. There is a gorgeous cherry blossom tree in front of the Grande galerie de l'Évolution that makes for iconic photos. This garden is filled with a few giant cherry blossom trees in one area, tons of beautiful flowers, and a great place to walk around. This is one of those places you can easily spend the entire day at. Thousands of people visit the Jardin des Plantes each week and it's an absolutely incredible experience. 

Every year in front of the famous Shakespeare and Co store cherry blossoms bloom. Shakespeare and Co is an English bookshop, known for its incredible selection of books, stunning interior and relaxed ambiance. While you are checking out the cherry blossoms definitely take a peek inside the famous Shakespeare and co book store. Every year, I have a tradition where I go to Shakespeare and Co purchase a new book and read it under the cherry blooms. 

Mail de Bievre is such a beautiful place to see the Cherry blossoms in Paris. You’ve probably seen tons of iconic photos on Instagram of this location, it features cherry blossom trees on both sides creating a cherry blossom arch walkway. If you are looking for a romantic spot to take a stroll, or to capture beautiful photos then I highly recommend checking out the Mail de Bievre for their cherry blossom trees. 

Right in front of the Notre Dame is Square Jean XXIII is home to one of the most breathtaking areas of cherry blossom trees. What I love about this spot is that you get to enjoy the cherry blossom trees and the Notre Dame all at the same time. Despite the fire tragedy that hit the Notre Dame back in 2019, you will still be able to enjoy both the cherry blossoms and the beauty of the Notre Dame. The cherry blossoms in front of Shakespeare and Co is extremely close to the Square Jean XXII which makes it easy to see both locations in one day.

Right in front of the Louvre at the famous Tuileries garden is home to several cherry blossom trees that are in bloom during the springtime in Paris! In addition to it being home to cherry blossom trees, it is one of the best gardens worth visiting in Paris. 

I love going here yearly to admire the beautiful garden and take enjoy the breathtaking cherry blossom trees. This is the perfect place to go if you are looking for a walkable garden, that has several cherry blossom trees scattered throughout, and a big open space. 

One of the most relaxing spots and often overlooked spots to enjoy the cherry blossom trees is Square Gabriel Pierne. What makes this one of my favorite spots is the chairs and park benches that allow you to easily sit down and spend time enjoying these gorgeous trees. I find this area so calm and peaceful that I could spend hours here losing track of time. If you want to enjoy a nice relaxing day outside reading a book under a cherry blossom tree then head to Square Gabriel Pierne.
