A Walk in the Park - c.1900 | Bois de Boulogne Paris - AI Enhanced [4k 60 fps]

Time travel back 120 years to Paris c.1900 for a Sunday stroll in the Bois de Boulogne.
It was a popular meeting place and promenade route for fashionable Parisians of all classes.

The film starts at the Porte Dauphine entrance to Bois de Boulogne. Look out for an early French automobile scooting past in the first few frames, possibly a De Dion Bouton.
Though horse drawn carriages were still the main transport, automobiles were quickly making their noisy presence felt by the start of the 20th century.

The exact date is unclear but the ladies walking skirts are still long and require hoisting, so this film was probably made before 1905.

The Bois de Boulogne ( Boulogne woodland) is a large public park ceded to the citizens of Paris by Emperor Napoleon III in 1852.
It was once an ancient oak forest.There are several lakes, botanical and floral gardens, a zoo and an amusement park. It was popular for equestrian events and open air theater in the 1900's. To the east of the Bois de Boulogne is the Parc de Bagatelle. To the north, the Jardin d'Acclimatation and to the South-east, the greenhouses of Le Jardin des Serres d'Auteuil.
