Why locals recommend it

One of the most romantic gardens in all of Paris, set in a leafy courtyard on rue Chaptal. It’s part of an old mansion, now a museum, where writer George Sand and painter Ary Scheffer once lived. Find a bench under one the large centenary trees and let your mind wander. Set in a greenhouse, the museum’s tea café is a very peaceful place and unknown to many Parisians. I like to stop in for a hot cup of tea to calm the mind before heading to the garden. Set in a greenhouse, the museum’s tea café is a very peaceful place, and unknown to many Parisians.

A lovely little museum devoted to the romantic artists of the nineteen century. There is a beautiful garden also and a terrace where you can have drinks and a snack. It's 20 mn walk away from the flat. Address: 16 rue Chaptal 75009

Very small, romantic, quite secret museum The museum recreates a harmonious historical setting evoking the romantic period. In the museum's garden, the seasonal tearoom, a real haven of peace (open from March to October)

This is with absolute certainty one of the most charming place of Paris. The museum is taking place in this former Hôtel Particulier, where personnalities like Chopin, Sand, Delacroix or Stravinsky used to stay in the 19th century. After a romantic era tour in the 2-floor museum, you'll have the opportunity to enjoy an afternoon tea in its private backyard for a little break.
