The Canal Saint-Martin neighborhood is one of the most picturesque areas of Paris. If you've seen the film Amelie you may recognize the bridge where the heroine threw her red ribbon. It is one of the most famous bridges among a number that crisscross the canal and has retained its charm despite the publicity generated by the film. A bed and breakfast in Canal Saint-Martin allows you to immerse yourself in an enchanted atmosphere. The idea of the canal originated at the time of Napoleon and was completed in 1825. In the 1970s the waterway was nearly covered over and transformed into a highway! Fortunately the plan was vigorously opposed by local residents and water continues to flow above ground and below from Bastille to Faubourg du Temple. Today the banks of the canal are filled throughout the year with young people improvising picnics and couples strolling all the way to la Villette.
