Description:

|
The carousel has many names in various countries; merry-go-round, carrousel, carosello, roundabout, galloper or flying horses. In the early 18th century they used centrifugal force, originally powered by animals walking in an outside circle. As of 2012 there were 35 permanent carousels in Paris; the oldest is in the Jardin du Luxembourg and dates from 1879, with animals designed by Charles Garnier. Major French makers of carousels were Bayol, Coquereau et Marechal, and N. Henri de Vos, in the period between 1890 and 1930. The vintage dual platform ("double decker") Carrousel de Paris, in the Jardin du Trocadéro, across from the Eiffel Tower, is popular with both the Parisians and the tourists. Children can ride traditional wooden horses but also various vehicles and even be lifted in a "hot-air balloon". (Source: Wikipedia; http://en.wikipedia. org/wiki/Main_Page)
