A great place to live, perhaps, but not much to visit
TripAdvisor traveler rating: 3 of 5 stars
The Canal St-Martin area has become the trendy place to recommend (at least according to the guidebooks and Web sites). We visited on a cool, sunny Saturday and saw more joggers than any other place...

Great canal boat ride
TripAdvisor traveler rating: 4 of 5 stars
We took the Canauxrama boat ride on the Canal on a pleasant spring afternoon. Got to see parts of the city we probably wouldn't have had the time to walk, from the Parc de la Violette in the 19e to...

I've heard people praise the canal for being a romantic place to stroll or picnic. On my experience (having visited many times, but for running) it seems not very attractive and quite dirty and...

improving within the last ten years.
TripAdvisor traveler rating: 3 of 5 stars
I had a IS project in the area for about 3 months. The place has slowly been cleaned up and a walk along the canal is very pretty in Spring, especially if it is sunny.

Must have gone the wrong time of year!

Went because the tour book said how great the area is with cafes and boutiques etc - it was terrible with graffiti on the buildings and no decent places to shelter from the rain. One cafe - Cafe...

Top 5 favorite places in the world to spend an afternoon
TripAdvisor traveler rating: 5 of 5 stars
Grab some wine, grab some snacks (or hit up the Pink Flamingo for pizza) and spend an afternoon sitting by the canal people watching. Perfection!
