Parc de Belleville, located in the 20th arrondissement of Paris, is known for its breathtaking panoramic views of the city from one of the highest points in Paris. Inaugurated in 1988, it was designed by architect François Debulois and landscape architect Paul Brichet to provide a green space in an area previously lacking in such amenities. The park covers 4.5 hectares and offers numerous amenities, including ping-pong tables, playgrounds, and shaded areas, making it an ideal spot for families and gatherings.

The park’s most notable feature is the Belvédère Willy Ronis, named in honor of the famous photographer who captured the essence of working-class Paris. The terrace provides sweeping views of iconic landmarks like the Panthéon, Notre-Dame, and the Eiffel Tower. The lush greenery of the park includes 1,200 trees, as well as vines, commemorating the historic vineyards that once covered Belleville's slopes. Throughout the year, the park's gardens burst with colorful blooms, creating a serene and picturesque environment for picnics and leisurely walks.

Parc de Belleville also has a long and interesting history. The area once housed vineyards that produced the famous `piquette`, a young, slightly sparkling wine that was popular in the local taverns. Today, these historical roots are still represented by the small vineyard within the park. Visitors can relax by the large cascading fountain, which stretches over 100 meters down the hill, providing a refreshing ambiance, especially during the warmer months. The park's varied attractions and stunning views make it one of Paris’s hidden gems for both locals and visitors.
