Bordeaux, France

Bordeaux is France’s greatest city, according to some. It is the hub of the famed wine-growing region, is a port city on the Garonne River in southwestern France. It’s known for its Gothic Cathédrale Saint-André, 18th- to 19th-century mansions and notable art museums such as the Musée des Beaux-Arts de Bordeaux. Public gardens line the curving river quays. The grand Place de la Bourse, centered on the Three Graces fountain, overlooks the Miroir d’Eau reflecting pool. Bordeaux is the ninth-most densely populated European Union city. Producing four times as much wine as the second most famous region in France. Bordeaux is a production powerhouse. It has over 250,000 acres of vines and over 20,000 wine producers in the region. Bordeaux is a fairly safe city, but people should use common sense. Avoid wandering alone at night in the Gare St-Jean, Marché des Capucins and place de la Victoire areas. None of these areas are dangerous, but they can attract shady characters and feel unsavoury after dark. An interesting portfolio of art museums embracing all periods and genres is the icing on the cake to it’s magnificent architectural heritage. This city was under Britain’s control for over 300 years.
