What you'll see
A huge granite slab on the quay covered with a couple of centimetres of water that reflects the Place de la Bourse, then drains and fills with mist every few minutes; people paddle across it.
A brief history
It was built in 2006 as part of turning the old docks into riverside gardens and paths.
