About

  • English
    • The remarkable garden of Périgord, a unique geographical escape in France, overlooks the wild banks of the Dordogne River and the Druids' Forest. The Water Gardens are dedicated to the lushness of lotuses, water lilies, and exotic and tropical water lilies. The multitude of varieties and colors illuminate the gardens with their beauty.

      Lotus flowers can rise more than 2 meters above the water. Native to America, the Middle East, and Asia, where the lotus symbolizes beauty and purity, you'll discover a veritable aquatic arboretum on and between the various bodies of water, ponds, streams, and waterfalls, where frogs and dragonflies will greet you.

      NEW: UNIQUE IN EUROPE discover the 1st AQUATIC LABYRINTH, over 500 meters of walkway at water level, between aquatic fauna and flora.
