Extraordinary giant light sculptures

  • This year, put yourself in the shoes of a paleontologist and let yourself be surprised by the fascinating biodiversity of the Jurassic on a luminous nocturnal tour of the Jardin des Plantes alleys
  • For fans of Jurassic ParkIn the Jurassic, there were no T. rexes or Triceratops, no flowers and no grass. 
  • This new edition of the Jardin des Plantes' not-to-be-missed nocturnal stroll offers a glimpse of the Jurassic as described in recent scientific publications: an era when the oceans teemed with life, dinosaurs made landfall and the first birds appeared. 
  • From deep oceans populated by giant marine reptiles to verdant valleys dominated by dinosaurs, explore 5 paleoenvironments and discover the species that once inhabited our planet.
  • Thanks to monumental illuminated sculptures, some of which are animated, the not-to-be-missed evening stroll features emblematic species such as plesiosaurs, archaeopteryx and ammonites.
