Boat in the Ecluses des Recollets, or Recollets lock, in the Recollets basin, between the Quai de Valmy and Quai de Jemmapes, over the Canal Saint-Martin in the 10th arrondissement of Paris, France. In the distance is the Passerelle Bichat, a cast iron arched pedestrian footbridge built late 19th century. The Canal Saint-Martin is a 4.6km long waterway between the Canal de l'Ourcq and river Seine, built 1802-25 to provide a fresh water source to the city and provide a trade route for canal barges.
