It offers a commanding view, lush grass perfect for a nap or a picnic on a warm day, and of course, like most other places in the city, it\u2019s a gold mine for people watching. If you want to photobomb a bride and groom, or just watch them being cute (don\u2019t be creepy!), this is your place.<\/p>\n<p>This is one of my favorite parks in Â鶹APP because of its situation on the relative outskirts of the city. Other famous parks, like Luxembourg, le Jardin des Plantes, and Place des Vosges are always lovely on a warm day, but at Buttes Chaumont, you\u2019ll be a bit less overwhelmed by the \u201c<em>foule<\/em>\u201d (crowd).

Miners sent this important building material both to Â鶹APP and to the united states, but the massive basin excavated in the mining process also served as the neighborhood dump. The decomposing mass wafted its acrid fumes across the neighborhood and the city before finally rotting into fertilizer. But one key ingredient made the odor especially intolerable: the mine was a favorite depository for horse carcasses. With something like 35,000 horses in the city on a given day, their deaths represented a significant problem solved by this giant pit in the ground.<\/p>\n<div id=\"attachment_14588\" style=\"width: 934px\" class=\"wp-caption alignnone\"><img decoding=\"async\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-14588\" class=\"size-full wp-image-14588\" src=\"https:\/\/www.discoverwalks.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/01\/acompleteguidetothebutteschaumontparkinparis.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"924\" height=\"660\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.discoverwalks.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/01\/acompleteguidetothebutteschaumontparkinparis.jpg 924w, https:\/\/www.discoverwalks.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/01\/acompleteguidetothebutteschaumontparkinparis-300x214.jpg 300w, https:\/\/www.discoverwalks.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/01\/acompleteguidetothebutteschaumontparkinparis-768x549.jpg 768w, https:\/\/www.discoverwalks.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/01\/acompleteguidetothebutteschaumontparkinparis-1024x731.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/www.discoverwalks.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/01\/acompleteguidetothebutteschaumontparkinparis-816x583.jpg 816w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 924px) 100vw, 924px\" \/><p id=\"caption-attachment-14588\" class=\"wp-caption-text\"><em>Mines of Buttes Chaumont &#8211; Wiki Commons<\/em><\/p><\/div>\n<p>However, you\u2019d never guess the park\u2019s and neighborhood\u2019s gory history on a visit to the area (one would hope!). In 1852, Napoleon took over the French government to establish the Second Empire. He had a grand vision for the city: during his reign, he worked with Georges-Eug\u00e8ne Haussmann to overhaul the city and give it the face we know today. This included four parks, like compass points for the city: Bois de Boulogne, Parc Montsouris, Bois de Vincennes, and, voil\u00e0, Parc des Buttes-Chaumont.<\/p>\n<p>Mining stopped in 1860, and after cleaning out the decomposing horses, construction began in 1863. They used explosives to carve out the buttes we know today, pumped water from the Bassin de la Villette to fill the lake, and finished construction in time for the Exposition Universelle in 1867.<\/p>\n<h4>Things to do<\/h4>\n<div id=\"attachment_14594\" style=\"width: 934px\" class=\"wp-caption alignnone\"><img decoding=\"async\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-14594\" class=\"size-full wp-image-14594\" src=\"https:\/\/www.discoverwalks.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/01\/acompleteguidetothebutteschaumontparkinparis7.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"924\" height=\"616\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.discoverwalks.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/01\/acompleteguidetothebutteschaumontparkinparis7.jpg 924w, https:\/\/www.discoverwalks.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/01\/acompleteguidetothebutteschaumontparkinparis7-300x200.jpg 300w, https:\/\/www.discoverwalks.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/01\/acompleteguidetothebutteschaumontparkinparis7-768x512.jpg 768w, https:\/\/www.discoverwalks.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/01\/acompleteguidetothebutteschaumontparkinparis7-1024x683.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/www.discoverwalks.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/01\/acompleteguidetothebutteschaumontparkinparis7-816x544.jpg 816w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 924px) 100vw, 924px\" \/><p id=\"caption-attachment-14594\" class=\"wp-caption-text\"><em>Pont Gustave Eiffel, Parc des Buttes Chaumont &#8211; by BikerNorman, Wiki Commons<\/em><\/p><\/div>\n<p>When you visit, be sure to admire the architecture and bounce a little bit on the long suspension bridge leading across the lake.

If you need another wedding shot with a great view over the city (it probably won\u2019t be your wedding when you visit, but they\u2019re nice spots all the same) climb the path to the Temple de la Sybille atop the butte.<\/p>\n<p>Architect Gabriel Davioud, who also designed the Fontaine Saint-Michel and many other city monuments of the time, designed this little gazebo-like structure, modeling it after an ancient Roman temple in the hills of Italy.<\/p>\n<p>Now that you\u2019ve reached the peak, descend the stairs (careful of your wedding gown!). Traverse the so called \u201csuicide bridge,\u201d which got its name after local newspapers reported several unfortunate jumps.
