Parc Asterix is a French amusement park located in the suburbs of Paris. Asterix, the lovable Gaul warrior (think 50 B.C.), and his friend Obelix have been beloved comic book characters in France since the 50s. They have taught countless French children about the history of France in an incredibly fun and unique way. Asterix and Obelix’s amusement park is another way to teach children (and you!) a bit of history while having a blast at the amusement park.

Parc Asterix features all the traditional amusement park rides for big and small, plus restaurants, shopping, and even on on-site hotel. In my opinion, if you want to go to a theme park in Paris, it makes best sense to go to one that is purely French in nature and in tradition. Do something you can’t do at home!
