Parc de la Villette
Fifty-five hectares on the old cattle-market grounds, scored by the Canal de l'Ourcq and studded with Tschumi's red steel follies. The science museum, the mirrored Géode and the Philharmonie share the lawns where the free open-air film festival runs in July and August.
Bring a blanket for the summer cinema on the Prairie du Triangle. The grounds close to lingering 1:00–6:00.
