Bordeaux is a city that respects the details. The city is half a UNESCO World Heritage site. Between 30,000 and 20,000 years ago the area of Bordeaux was inhabited by the Neanderthal Man, whose remains have been found at a famous cave emerged as Pair- non- Pair near Bourg sur Gironde, just north of Bordeaux.

The city has lovely climate, thanks to its location to the European Atlantic coast. The city is built on a bend of the river Garonne and is divided into two parts. The river is also accessible to ocean liners.

During the years Bordeaux passed through a lot of transformations. Before the new tramway, you had the old city preserved for one part of the population, and everyone else was outside. Now you have lines from the outskirts to the center, you have a different population in the city. In front of the Grand- Theatre, a very high level place, you have a much more lively mix. The whole society is meeting. It’s wonderful.

The city also has very simple, elegant tram than other cities in France. Despite the tramway many major streets reserved for pedestrians in such a large city. And every first Sunday of every month, the whole city is for pedestrians. You can walk all day long whenever you want.

Bordeaux also boasts with its historic architecture and at the same time has notable examples of modernism. See the historic city but more important is the second thing, which is to explore Bordeaux in the forest, Arcachon Bay, the sea, so you will see why people there live so well. Bordeaux is very open, very welcoming place, don’t miss it in your vacation list!
