Seven thousand varieties, from small echinocereus to 10m-tall African candelabras, are linked by winding paths and wooden bridges with spectacular views. Keep a firm hold of toddlers - there are some holey fences and unthinkable drops.

  4. Parc Fontvieille

    The lush gardens of Parc Fontvieille are pleasant for a summer stroll; more than 4000 rose bushes and a small swan-filled lake adorn the Roseraie Princesse Grace (Princess Grace Rose Garden), planted in her memory in 1984. Contemporary sculptures, including works by César and Arman, line the length of the park's Chemin des Sculptures.
