Model Answer 1:
Parc Monceau is located near the Paris Metro Station and one of the 
renowned parks inside the city. This is a public park with carried types of plants 
and its history dates back to the 18th century and covers an area of over 20 
acres. 
The park is adjacent to my residence and I go for a walk every morning. The 
park being near to my place, I usually go by walking and could also be 
accessible from any parts of the city with different transportation modes. It is 
physically located in the 8th arrondissement in Paris. The location of the park is 
a prominent one as that is set at the junction of a couple of boulevards. The 
boulevards are better known as Rue Georges Berger, Boulevard de Courcelles 
and Rue de Prony. As a result, the park is always being used by different types 
of people at different times of the day. It was set by the Duke of Chartres, 
Phillippe d'Orléans. He was a wealthy man with a gorgeous taste and had 
bought the land to build this public park by his own initiative. The gardens 
inside the park are designed and maintained carefully. The park has nine gates 
and remains open from sunrise to sunset. 
The park is like a small heaven inside the city. Though the park is located in 
France, it is highly influenced by the English taste as the Duke was fond of 
English culture. He was also a friend of the Prince of Wales and thus grew the 
taste towards English society. He, in fact, wanted to establish the park like a 
private garden that he saw in an English house in England and wanted to 
model the garden like that one. Though similar in style of Anglo-Chinese 
garden, the park could not take the complete shape as it was desired. In that 
time some other gardens were made following the same style as the Duke 
wanted and finally he gave up the idea and allowed the garden to be like as it 
is today. A German designer was appointed to design the garden and the Duke 
wanted that the design should be solely based on the unique ideas so that the 
visitors could get amazed with the garden and the landscape. The park is still in 
the way as it was desired by the Duke. The special art form charms the visitors 
and majority of them long to come back here again. 
There are a lot of things to do at the Parc Monceau. Usually, the park is visited 
by a wide range of visitor every day and they perform different things. The

park is crowded in the morning and evening hours. In the morning, people 
usually come here to walk, jog and run. Sometimes, the kids also come to the 
park to play in the playground. Besides, in summer days, picnics are held in the 
open spaces of the park. At that moment, picnickers gather with groups and 
hold their respective events. They cook foods and enjoy the picnic. So, I think 
summer is the best time to visit the park if you want to enjoy the leisure hours. 
But in general, the park is used by the other people for common purposes. The 
populations living adjacent to the park, like me, come here to walk in the 
morning. The area becomes crowded in the morning with the noise of people 
and sometimes the kids also come in the morning to get exercise. Children 
usually come in the holidays for different sort of physical exercise and sports. 
Besides, the park demonstrates different relics of the 18th century which are 
also adorable and good to look at. Capturing still pictures is a common issue for 
the visitors, and many of the visitors are seen posing by the side of the relics 
and clicking pictures while some other are capturing the relics only.
This is the only park that has an English style. The walkways are nicely curved. 
Besides, statues of different things are placed by the side of the walkways and 
in several other places. All these have made the Parc Monceau different from 
the contemporary parks. As a result, people of different strata come to visit 
the park every day. The design, being non-traditional, has elevated the beauty 
of the park. There are different things to enjoy at the park including a Chinese 
fort, Egyptian Pyramid, temple of Mars, Dutch windmill, Italian vineyard, 
Corinthian pillars and others. The most attractive things are the statues of 
renowned French people. All these have made the park a place to enjoy the 
natural beauty. So, a substantial number of people come to visit the park at 
different hours of the day.
