Grenoble - Parks and Gardens

Grenoble is well supplied with parks and gardens. On the far side of the Isère, below the Fort de la Bastille, are the Jardin des Dauphins (orientation table) and the Parc Guy-Pape, both with views of Fort Rabot, built on a rocky crag. In the southeast of the city is the Parc Paul-Mistral, in which are a number of modern buildings including the Olympic Stadium, built in 1967, which seats 70,000 spectators. There is another park on the banks of the Isère opposite the church of St-Laurent.
