                <description><![CDATA[A 19th century park dating back to the 2nd Empire full of German chalets that began life as an animal breeding centre and is now just a park, although it has some interesting features and seems pretty safe (not necessarily true of other SP parks like Trianon/Luz). A good Saturday morning excursion for parents with young children - swings, a mini zoo, an aquarium, at 11am usually a free open air theatre. There is also a pond full of ducks and next to it a reconstructed hut which serves traditional corn meal griddle cakes cooked over an open fire and free coffee for 25p each.<br><br>Also worth noting is the farmer's market selling organic produce (Tues and Sat, although it's only on Sats that stallholders turn out in force - look out for the Demetria stall selling first rate biodynamic breads/jams/dairy products, only to get e.g. their butter you have to be there before 8 am or call them and order in advance.]]></description>
