Lac inférieur, Reservoir in bois de Boulogne, Paris, France.
The lower lake features two islands connected by a suspension bridge, with shores lined by large trees and multiple walking paths.
Created in 1854 during Napoleon III's reign, engineer Adolphe Alphand designed this artificial lake as part of the bois de Boulogne renovation.
Two islands within the lake contain a boat-accessible restaurant and a pavilion providing views across the water environment.
Visitors can circle the lake on a 3.1-kilometer trail suitable for walking, jogging, and cycling activities throughout the year.
The lake's hydraulic system helps regulate water levels in the Paris region with a capacity of 349 million cubic meters.
