The Parc aux Angéliques (Angelic Park) is an environmentally-friendly effort to increase green spaces in Bordeaux. This heavenly garden is right next to the Darwin Ecosystem on the banks of the Garonne.
In 2010, the government of Bordeaux decided to convert the old parking lot and former industrial area near the Quai Deschamps into a garden that everyone could enjoy and in 2017 this project was complete. The park contains only plant species native to the area, so that they can adapt to the soil without needing extra water or fertilisers. The idea is to create a garden that doesn’t need to be watered, and that saves resources. Parc aux Angéliques contains more than 6,000 trees planted in strips perpendicular to the river, and are accompanied by green paths and rustic, flowering meadows.
