Parisian Rooftop Beekeeping: A Sweet Revolution in the City of Light

巴黎屋顶养蜂热潮:城市与蜜蜂的和谐共生

C1时文329 词约 2 分钟

When people imagine Paris, they usually think of baguettes, the Eiffel Tower, and elegant cafés. Yet in recent years, a quieter but equally fascinating trend has taken root above the city's rooftops: urban beekeeping. Thousands of hives now sit atop hotels, restaurants, and even historic landmarks, producing a distinct honey that tastes of the city's parks and gardens.

The modern revival of Parisian beekeeping began in the early 2000s, and it gained global attention after a colony survived the devastating fire at Notre Dame Cathedral in 2019. The bees on the cathedral's roof, kept by a local beekeeper, emerged unscathed, symbolising resilience. Their honey is now collected annually and sold to support heritage projects.
