Laid out on the quay opposite the Place de la Bourse, this vast reflecting pool holds only a thin sheet of water over polished granite, creating a mirror that doubles the classical facades behind it. Periodically the water drains away and jets release a fine mist, turning the space into a fog-shrouded playground for children on hot days. Conceived as part of the riverfront renewal, it has become a beloved gathering point for residents and visitors alike. Photographers prize the reflections at dawn and dusk when the light is low.
