The Miroir d'Eau (Water Mirror) is the world's largest reflecting pool — a 3,450 m² granite slab on the Garonne riverfront that alternates between a thin sheet of reflective water and clouds of mist. It perfectly mirrors the Place de la Bourse and has become Bordeaux's most beloved public space.
Designed by landscape architect Michel Corajoud and fountain engineer Jean-Max Llorca, the Miroir d'Eau opened in 2006 as part of the massive Garonne waterfront renovation. It was the first of its kind in the world and has since been imitated in cities from Nantes to Abu Dhabi.
