This summer, visitors of the Grand Trianon are invited to discover a flowerbed of African inspirations. Designed to echo the Africa 2020 season, which was originally scheduled to start on June 1, 2020, it will be available until October. An opportunity to consider the garden of the Grand Trianon in a more exotic and resolutely original light: an invitation to travel.
