The Château de Champs-sur-Marne is an early 18th-century country house east of Paris, designed by Pierre Bullet and his son Jean-Baptiste Bullet de Chamblain for financiers of Louis XIV. Madame de Pompadour rented it in the 1750s; visitors see furnished rooms, a Chinese salon painted by Christophe Huet and a formal garden running down towards the Marne.

The Château de Vincennes is a former royal residence and fortress on the eastern edge of Paris, largely built between 1361 and 1369. Its keep, a fortified 14th-century tower, held the private apartments of French kings, and its Flamboyant Gothic chapel was begun in 1379 and completed in 1552. Most of the complex is open to visitors.

Disneyland Paris is a Disney resort in Marne-la-Vallée, about 32 km east of central Paris, opened on 12 April 1992. It has two theme parks: Disneyland Park, with Main Street, U.S.A., Sleeping Beauty Castle and Big Thunder Mountain, and Disney Adventure World, opened in 2002 as Walt Disney Studios Park, plus hotels and Disney Village.

The Paris Zoological Park, commonly called the Vincennes Zoo, is run by the National Museum of Natural History on 14.5 hectares of the Bois de Vincennes. It opened in 1934 and groups animals by biozone rather than species, with a tropical greenhouse. Its landmark is a 65-metre artificial rock visible across the park.
