As every season, the Accès Culture team has put together a program of tactile and descriptive tours that will take place on weekends in June, in Paris gardens and parks. These tours are free and reserved for blind and visually impaired people, as well as the people accompanying them. For participants’ comfort, the number of spots is limited to 20 people per tour. If you need assistance getting around, please come with someone to accompany you.

Of Paris’s five royal squares, with its trees, fountains, and arcades, it is undoubtedly one of the most pleasant.
