Famous for its excellent lifestyle, Bordeaux also features some of Europe's most charming and impressive examples of 18th century architecture.
Located in the heart of a region offerring countless attractions, great wines and first class cuisines. Host a lot of internaitonal events such as antiques fair, wine festivals, multi arts, women in cinema to name a few, etc....
Built during the Restoration period, 26th of August, 1821, 527 yards long and supported 17 arches faced with brick. Designed by an Inspector General of the Highways Department, Claude Deschamps. It was not until May 1, 1822 that the nes brdige was open to all traffic.The Stone Bridge brought La Bastide and Bordeaux so close together that in 1865 the town received permission from the Emperor to simply annex this part of Cenon. I then became a district of the larger town without losing any of its own personality.
- Pros:Tremendous Architectural Heritage, Great Wines and superb cuisines
- Cons:"Not enough time for me."
- In a nutshell:A Taste of Bordeaux

Thanks for sharing - I'll be in Bordeaux for four weeks from tomorrow on.
Interesting tips on Bordeaux, a city I have only passed through but never really had a good look at. The Grand Theater looks stupendous! I see you have signed up for EuroMeet 2008 in Karlsruhe, so I look forward to meeting you there.
Very useful info for my upcoming tour of France and Spain which includes an overnight in Bordeaux, and nice pics.
if you called me, we could have a drink, i realized with your page that i missed chartrons, but you missed palais galien
I have always wanted to visit this part of France. Great pictures and tips too.
Very useful and helpful tips. if all goes well i'll be in bordeaux in 2005. happy travels!!! :)
Very nice and enjoyable pages Specially your Bordeaux page thanks for the mail too...

Bordeaux & Mont St Michel will definitely be additions to my list of places to visit if I'm lucky enough to get back to France. Thanks for your helpful & interesting tips Cecille! A bientot!
