Paris is located on the Seine river and does not have access to the sea or a lake. Pleasure craft (except for houseboats) are rarely seen in Paris on the Seine.This does not stop this from sailing his yacht on the central basin in le Jardin du Luxembourg.
These gardens are the largest park in Paris. They were constructed in the early seventeen century for Marie de Medici, the second wife of King Henry IV and mother of Louis XIII. She was of Italian descent, so the architect designed the palace in a Florentine style. The queen was unable to enjoy this park for long. Her son exiled her to Cologne shortly after the completion of the park.
