The Canal Saint-Martin, in the 10th Arrondissement, is not just an ordinary canal. Over recent decades, it has evolved into one of most fashionable and edgy spots of the French capital. Parisians usually enjoy summer picnicking on this four-kilometer-long canal that runs north from the Seine at Bastille Plaza and is lined with avant-garde galleries and old warehouses converted into lofts.
Some people usually bring their own saucisson and sit on the shores of the canal for sunset. Others enjoy a glass of wine at one of the few well-known cafes along the glimmering ribbon of water like café Chez Prune or the legendary Hôtel du Nord.
