Here follows a walking path with trees on both sides close to the path. It's like walking under an arch.

This "deciduous corridor" is also called berceau
Berceaus date from the time when it was fashionable for wealthy ladies to look as white as possible to distinguish themselves from working people who, because they spent a lot of time outdoors, had a tanned skin color. In such a berceau one could walk outside and still stay out of the sun.

The foliage corridor is only accessible during the day.
