Moreover, it is also where some of the middle ages' most iconic weddings took place.
Hotel de Ville de Bordeaux

Rue des Remparts

30 min

Rue des Remparts in Bordeaux, France, is a charming street rich in history and lined with beautiful buildings and little artisinal shops. Literally translating to "Street of Ramparts," it evokes the city's medieval past, once bordered by protective walls.

On this street, we will stop by several food establishments to try some bread/ pastries, do a honey tasting and buy some charcuterie.
Porte Dijeaux

This arched Gate stands at the location of a historical entry point to the city, dating back to ancient times, including the Roman era. Evidence suggests that this spot was once home to a temple honoring the deity Jupiter. Others claim that it was the barrier between the historic city of Bordeaux and the jewish district. Today it stands as one of the city's most iconic monuments, definitely worth seeing.
La Galerie des Grands Hommes

Located in the very heart of Bordeaux's golden triangle, this Grands Hommes showcases refined architecture, high-end shops, cultural venues, and some of the city's top dining establishments.

During the 18th century, this area served as the bustling old market of the city though over time, as Bordeaux evolved, the market transformed into the elegant district that it is today.
Place de la Comedie

Place de la Comédie stands out as the grandest spot in Bordeaux, not just for its square but also for the stunning views it offers from every angle.
