Photo Story: Canal Saint Martin

Some time ago we shared with you our impressions of Canal Saint Martin, a gentrifying, 19th century waterway in Paris. Canal Saint Martin is known as a great summer hangout located in picturesque 10th and 19 arrondissements.

Below we share our moments from our last visit in Paris during a hot October day. As you can see, Canal Saint Martin looked totally different but equally charming when we visited the second time.
