While few would argue that it doesn\u2019t deserve it, there\u2019s more to the French story and you\u2019ll find a beautiful piece of it in the southwest city of Bordeaux. It should be considered a highlight of any journey through Southern France.<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter size-full wp-image-81645\" src=\"https:\/\/www.orbitz.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/10\/Bordeaux.jpeg\" alt=\"\" width=\"1000\" height=\"667\" \/><\/p>\n<p>Bordeaux is a different beast than Paris. For one thing, you won\u2019t have to wind your way through massive crowds. That\u2019s not to say it&#8217;s a sleepy place. Bordeaux is France\u2019s eighth largest city, with a population of more than 240,000, but it\u2019s not crazy-busy either. It strikes the right balance of energy and edge thanks to its college student population. Better still, you generally won\u2019t find expensive Parisian price tags, be it dining or accommodations.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\"><a href=\"https:\/\/www.orbitz.com\/blog\/2018\/11\/this-is-europes-secretly-cool-capital-you-havent-visited-yet\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\"><strong>RELATED<\/strong>: Meet Europe&#8217;s secretly cool capital you&#8217;ve never heard of<\/a><\/p>\n<h2>Shopping<\/h2>\n<p>For retail action, check out Rue Sainte-Catherine, featuring 1.2 km of shopping; it&#8217;s believed to be the longest pedestrian street in Europe. The designer stores and stunning Gothic, Renaissance and contemporary architecture packs enough pizazz to make it worth a stroll even if the shops are beyond your budget. Sprinkled in the mix you\u2019ll find eateries, along with a handful of less fancy stores. While the scene is high-end retail, it is contrasted by street musicians and entertainers, like a man on stilts draped in a gold full-length gown, and with branches sprouting from his body. Self-expression is the order of the day in Bordeaux; perhaps that\u2019s not surprising in a place where wine is like water.<\/p>\n<h2>Wine<\/h2>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter size-full wp-image-81644\" src=\"https:\/\/www.orbitz.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/10\/bordeaux-wine-cork.jpeg\" alt=\"\" width=\"1000\" height=\"667\" \/><\/p>\n<p>Bordeaux is all about vino. This region is world-renowned for its wines, including a vast selection of really good wines priced between $5-$10.\u00a0 Whether you\u2019re an oenophile or not, you will be impressed by La Cit\u00e9 du Vin, a museum\/cultural center that celebrates wine and is famous for its bold, curvy shape. The museum, which opened in 2016, bills itself as an immersive journey through a global history and culture of wine. Spend hours getting swept up in 3-D films, engrossing kiosks where you control the narrative, wine tastings, and more. There is also an enormous museum store boasting wines from around the globe. Truthfully, if you took a trip to Bordeaux solely to visit the La Cit\u00e9 du Vin you wouldn\u2019t feel cheated.<\/p>\n<h2>Dining<\/h2>\n<p>Great food goes with great wine and Bordeaux\u2019s culinary scene is vibrant. In the last few years, celebrity chef Gordon Ramsay opened two restaurants in Bordeaux. Good luck getting a reservation at 2-Michelin-starred Le Pressoir d\u2019Argent Gordon Ramsay or Le Bordeaux Gordon Ramsay. Restaurants are springing up like local poppies. Recent additions include La Belle Saison, in a picturesque spot over the Garonne River and Cent33 headed by noted chef Fabien Beaufour. Cent33\u2019s Robotayaki, a Japanese-based wood-burning fireplace, has diners raving. Casa Gala and Arcada are two other recent additions making their culinary mark.<\/p>\n<p>As if that weren\u2019t enough to sate the most discerning foodies, late last year food court La Boca opened. Fill up on Japanese, seafood, Italian, tapas, Mexican street food, fish, wine, cheese, and more. Then there is Les halles de Bacalan, a new indoor market with local producers opened in front of La Cit\u00e9 du Vin. Quite frankly, there\u2019s little you can\u2019t buy here to tickle your palate.<\/p>\n<h2>Historic architecture<\/h2>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter size-full wp-image-81646\" src=\"https:\/\/www.orbitz.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/10\/Pont-de-Pierre.jpeg\" alt=\"\" width=\"1000\" height=\"500\" \/><\/p>\n<p>Much as Bordeaux continues to emerge as a hip, funky city where you have to watch out for skateboarders and cyclists, this UNESCO World Heritage city is awash in historic landmarks, some dating back to the 15<sup>th<\/sup> century. There are many to see, but put Pont de Pierre, with its panoramic views of Bordeaux and spanning the Garonne River, deserves a spot on your bucket list. This walkable bridge stretches 1,568 feet, features\u00a0 17 arches, and offers great views of the quay and port area. Pey Berland Tower was built in the 15<sup>th<\/sup> century; climb the tower for perfect views of the statue of Notre-Dame d\u2019Aquitaine, which sits atop it. Another popular site is Esplanade des Quinconces, the city\u2019s largest square, and among the largest in Europe. It overlooks the Garonne River and is beloved for its monuments and fountains.<\/p>\n<h2>Museums<\/h2>\n<p>Bordeaux is a city of museums. In addition to La Cit\u00e9 du Vin, check out CAPC, (the Museum of Contemporary Art), the Museum of Fine Arts, and the Museum of Decorative Arts &amp; Design for starters. The Museum of the Sea and Navy showcases the history of the navigation and the main discoveries of the oceanography and the new scientific conquest of the seas.<\/p>\n<h2>Hotels<\/h2>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter size-full wp-image-81647\" src=\"https:\/\/www.orbitz.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/10\/streets-in-bordeaux.jpeg\" alt=\"\" width=\"1000\" height=\"767\" \/><\/p>\n<p>For lodging, the <a href=\"https:\/\/www.orbitz.com\/Bordeaux-Hotels-Intercontinental-Bordeaux-Le-Grand-Hotel.h1653850.Hotel-Information\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">InterContinental Bordeaux \u2013 Le Grand Hotel<\/a>, is as luxurious as it sounds.
