Le Tropique du Papillon

A relaxing and magical place, with murmuring fountains, greenhouse garden of bananas, lotus and hibiscus and the magnificent colours of the softly fluttering butterflies all around you – the Tropique du Papillon in Elne is a gentle oasis of peace and beauty.  A cooling drink or ice-cream in the charming garden is an added bonus.  

Open every day from June to September, there are musical picnic evenings and puppet shows for the kids every Tuesday throughout July.

  1. I have just been watching a uTube video of the 2015 festival with Les Musiciens de Saint-Julien and a splendid children’s choir under the direction of Sofi Jeannin.

    I am unable to find the name of the choir or if it has published any CDs etc. Can anyone help?
