Bordeaux, France

Bordeaux France

Bordeaux is a vibrant and expansive city where wine continues to flow and churches remain standing. Its streets are adorned with appealing shopping arcades and beautiful 18th-century riverfront facades. This city is a haven for wine enthusiasts and an ideal choice for a romantic getaway. Perhaps the most notable feature of the Cathédrale St-André is the diverse array of flying buttresses that surround it. To the right of the main portico is a 16th-century buttress made up of a series of slender columns. Next to the Church of St-Michel is the equally stunning, free-standing bell tower, a commanding and hollow structure. If you've ever been curious about Flamboyant Gothic, these buildings provide an unparalleled definition of the style. Also not to be overlooked is Bordeaux’s Romanesque representative, the Church of Ste-Croix, with its richly decorated facade. And of course, you can't leave Bordeaux without visiting the Maison du Vin, which offers free tastings of regional wines. The city is also within easy reach of the sublime, immensely enjoyable Dune du Pilat, a colossal mountain of silky sand that seems to bring out the acrobat in everyone.
