Extraordinary giant light sculptures
- This year, put yourself in the shoes of a palaeontologist and let yourself be surprised by the fascinating biodiversity of the Jurassic during a luminous night walk through the alleys of the Jardin des Plantes
- For Jurassic Park fans, a myth collapses: in the Jurassic, no T. rex or Triceratops, no flowers or grass
- This new edition of the Jardin des Plantes’ unmissable night walk shows the Jurassic as it is described in recent scientific publications: an era when the oceans are teeming with life while dinosaurs reach the mainland and the first birds appear.
- From deep oceans populated by giant marine reptiles to verdant valleys dominated by dinosaurs, explore 5 paleoenvironments and learn about the species that once inhabited our planet.
- Thanks to illuminated monumental sculptures, some of which are animated, the unmissable night walk features emblematic species such as plesiosaurs, archaeopteryx, and ammonites.
