"Thelocationfor the most charmingscenes in the movie Amélie , this once-forgotten neighborhood is now a destination for the young and fun-loving. As soon as the weather turns warm, picnickers line the paths along this 19th-century waterway, watching bridges rise and turn to allow barges to pass. Shopping, food, drink, and diversions also abound here: Artazart( 83 Quai de Valmy ) is recognized as one of the best design bookstores in Europe, while Le Comptoir Général, just across the bridge, offers live music and cheap drinks. Chez Prune hasone of the city’s most popular terraces for enjoying a glass of something refreshingand a chance to watch Paris go by."
