The Jardin Exotique de La Roque Gageac is a surprising garden located in the heart of the Périgord noir region. This exotic garden, where palm trees, banana trees, bougainvillea, orange trees, pomegranate trees, lemon trees, and rose laurels thrive, owes its existence to its unique location. The village of La Roque Gageac is nestled between a cliff that acts as a natural solarium and the Dordogne river, creating a microclimate with a particular mildness. The garden is open to visitors all year round and offers a free and self-guided tour, allowing visitors to wander along the paths and discover the various plant species, a charming little chapel, and finally, a magnificent panorama of the Dordogne river and the village
