484,000 Trees in Paris
There are no less than 484,000 trees in Paris! This makes Paris one of the most treed cities in Europe and here we’re only counting the «public» trees.
trees lining public streets (96 500);
trees in parks and gardens (36 500);
trees in cemeteries (34 000);
trees along the Péripherique (8000);
trees in school yards and sports areas (9 000);
trees in the bois de Boulogne et Vincennes (300 000) for a total of 160 species.
Most trees in public spaces and lining streets live to just 60 to 80 years. Trees have a tough time dealing with pollution and other incidents of city life. But there are still 222 remarkable trees in Paris that have been classified by the city. The 222 are remarkable either for their beauty or fantastic shape, their history or their rarity. Here are a few of the trees deemed remarkable in our fair city. A list and map of 60 trees worth seeing is available on http://www.paris.fr
