Photographers, prepare to have a field day at this spot. The architecture is perfectly designed so the fountain front reflects the beautiful architecture behind. For the everyday person not in the arts, it’s an absolutely beautiful place to walk along the river, while also enjoying street performers and a generally warm crowd.
Wonderful place to spend some free time. It looks stunning all day long, however, the most beautiful time to see it is when it's getting dark. It becomes magical!
This is the world largest reflecting pool: the effect of water mirroring the buildings of the adjacent square is simply beautiful and gives its best at night. The pool is filled and emptied at regular intervals and I was told that during winter months it doesn't work because water might freeze, but fortunately it was working the night I was there.
Good attraction to visit on a clear day. If you are walking round the old town it is an easy stroll to the river to see it.
If you're in downtown Bordeaux, you must take a walk along the river and see the Mirror. Get out your selfie stick or bug a stranger and get a touristy photo taken. Absolutely beautiful. Surrounding gardens make it great for a picnic, so grab some baguettes or what have you and head on over!
This is such a beautiful area. Right next to the river. Great for a Sunday afternoon stroll or a morning run.
It's very nice place, occup it's better if tou go there in the morning before afternoon. It s good time for taking photo there
Very beautiful in summer times, when the water is on. Favourite place to meet people
Amazing site. I was there in the middle of the day and then at night when the lights turn on (21:30 summer time) and it was amazing. Kids can play on it with small amount of water and then they wash it all with lots of water and when this water goes down, that's when you see the mirror effect. Defenetly recommended to go by night. All the site around is beautiful. Colors are amazing. Gets cold at night so wear warm clothes. Enjoy!
It was fun! There are different levels of water and then there is some steam, and it's great on a nice day, especially for families with kids. There were children playing, people jogging through it... It was sweet. I wasn't sure of what it was exactly, before I visited it in person, and I must say I did find it a bit underwhelming, for what it was sold out to be. Still, worth a visit!
A great place to visit on the banks of the Garonne. Kids play there and people gather. Great reflexion of the surrounding buildings. I recommend it highly.
It’s very beautiful to see the reflection on the water. To fully appreciate it you have to arrive early in the morning when the sun lights up the buildings and there is not many people to disturb the water.
A fantastic centre piece. Bordeaux is a truly beautiful city. This is a must especially as it is at a junction with trams and river busses
Great place for a photo. Hang around as different experiences occur at this feature. It may look empty but will automatically fill if you hang around for 10mins. Mist will form which creates a great place to cool down with the opportunity to walk through the mist. The pond is only 2cm deep in its entirety so you are able to walk though to enable the perfect photograph
Should be renamed 'Kiddies paddling pool'. You'd have more chance of winning the lotto than get decent pics of the reflections in le miroir due to hordes of kids running and paddling in the water and adults posing for pictures in the middle of it. Disappointing.
Great fun, very busy. Cycles through various stages and on a hot day the mist cycle is perfect. On the busier days don't expect much of a mirror sheen to the water surface due to everyone playing and running through it.
Cool place to hang out during summer in Bordeaux. Usually very crowded, because literally everybody else is doing the same. There is nothing close there in terms of groceries or food trucks or anything, so you should bring a drink and snacks.
Absolutely loved this. The reflection, and therefore the view, changes with the light and the sky making for some stunning images. In summer it emits a fine water mist every 15 minutes which makes for a completely different scene. The only negative is that every child (and most of the adults) who come here think it's a giant paddling pool and when people are running about in it it becomes an extremely expensive, highly engineered, paddling pool rather than the intended mirror - I don't blame them but be aware you may have to stand round a while to get the desired effect.
The water mirror is the real deal here. Truly amazing how humans can lose their minds with a water fountain. You will be able to run across the fountain getting wet among babies playing and people full dressed inside the water. It really puts things in perspective watching people enjoying the mere existence of a place with water
It's probably one of the calling cards of the city. For me it was something new, first time I have seen such a solution - very creative and interesting. Recommended to experience especially evening and nighttime - lots of lights reflect (also cars and tramways) in the water.
