There are many, many carrousels (in French, manèges) to be found all around Paris. This is one of the most charming, I think—the dodo manège, with fanciful creatures to ride (a gorilla, an ostrich, a panda) as well as some that are extinct (a dodo, a triceratops). It's located near the northeast corner of the Jardin des Plantes. [To see more b/w images, visit Dragonstar's meme.] |
A tour of Paris via carousels is one of my plans, dear Alexa. This one is so fetching ~ I love it, too. And a beautiful image. Bon weekend et bisous. x0
ReplyDeleteTrès joli manège. C'est assez rare d'en voir avec de tels animaux. Bon week-end.
ReplyDeleteA very appealing collection of creatures. Lovely photo.
ReplyDeleteOh, I just love carousels. Love! Love! Love! And I think there's only 1 here where I live. Nor is it very 'happy'...

ReplyDeleteHard to choose my fav carrousel in Paris but this one is too precious for words.
