This park is a botanical treasure. It is a nod to travelers and explorers who returned to port with all kinds of exotic plants. The greenhouse is a highlight of these beautiful gardens.

A green setting in the heart of the city, Emmanuel Liais Park, classified as a remarkable garden, brings together a surprising and exotic plant heritage. You will be able to randomly come across winding alleys a Jubéa spectabilis, a Brazilian palm, a venerable Lambert cypress over a hundred years old, exotic plants and trees brought back from South America by Emmanuel Liais, astronomer and botany enthusiast, during his travels or imported from Asia in the 19th century.

In the greenhouses, you will dive into the heart of a tropical rainforest, cross a cactus desert to reach a temperate tropical greenhouse. Take your children to discover mysterious plants like this edible trunk tree that can live up to 1,000 years.

The park also houses the Emmanuel-Liais museum, a cabinet of curiosities with astonishing collections of animals and objects and the science library.
