Nymphéa: A Serene Oasis in Nantes

Getting There

• Walking

  From the center of Quartier de la Création, head east towards Rue de l'Université. Continue straight until you reach the intersection with Rue de la Fosse. Turn right onto Rue de la Fosse and follow it until you see the large waterway on your left. Cross over the bridge at this intersection, which should lead you towards Canal Saint-Félix. Once you've crossed the bridge, continue walking along the canal until you reach Nymphéa, located directly along the water's edge.

• Public Transport - Tram

  If you prefer public transport, walk to the nearest tram stop, which is 'Miroir d'Eau' located at the northern edge of Quartier de la Création. Take Tram Line 1 towards 'François Mitterrand' and get off at the next stop, 'Commerce'. From there, transfer to Tram Line 2 towards 'Orvault - Le Chêne'. Alight at the stop 'Mairie de Doulon'. Exit the tram station and follow the signs to Canal Saint-Félix. It’s about a 15-minute walk from the tram stop to Nymphéa along the canal.

• Bicycle

  If you wish to cycle, you can rent a bike from one of the local bike-sharing services. Head towards the nearest docking station, and take a bike heading south along the canal. Follow the bike path that runs parallel to the Canal Saint-Félix until you reach Nymphéa. The ride is scenic and will take approximately 10 minutes.
