Discover the Canal Saint-Martin

Far from the hustle and bustle of Paris, yet right in the heart of the capital, the Canal Saint-Martin is a haven of peace that has linked the Seine to the Canal de l’Ourcq for more than 150 years. As romantic as one could wish, this canal comes alive day and night, with its locks, swing bridges, bustling banks and footbridges.

The Canal Saint-Martin by day

The banks of the Canal Saint-Martin are the ideal place for a calm and contemplative stroll, far from the hustle and bustle of Paris. Along the walk under the hundred-year-old chestnut trees, we discover trendy bistros and pretty little colorful shops set up on the banks, offering a warm and festive atmosphere in all seasons.

North of the canal, we find ourselves in the Parc de la Villette, this green space conducive to strolling or exploring the Cité des Sciences.

The beauty andspecial atmosphere of the Saint-Martin canal are so charming that many French cinema films are regularly shot in this setting. We then recognize the Écluse des Récollets, which can be seen in the famous film by Marcel Carné, the Hôtel du Nord, but we also find the canal in Ratatouille, or even in The Fabulous Destiny of Amélie Poulain.

The Canal Saint-Martin by night

When the fine weather arrives, when the evenings are milder and Parisians enjoy living at night, the canal takes on another face, more trendy and festive. Young Parisians meet there to have a drink and have fun in one of the wine bars, in a restaurant, or in one of the concert venues on the canal.

The Saint-Martin canal in summer

In summer, the canal takes on yet another twist. The place is then recognized for hosting all summer, at the Bassin de la Villette, the event “Summer of the canal“, as well as “Paris Plage“. Then find yourself in the heart of Paris as well as by the sea, to enjoy the nautical activities, the dances and guinguettes and the many parties organized throughout the summer.

If you plan to stay in Paris for a few days, book your room at the Cadet Residence, and take the time to discover the unique atmosphere of the Saint-Martin canal. Change of scenery guaranteed!
