A walk in Bordeaux

Has the "sleeping beauty" woken up? Not really.

A short walk in the urban environment of Bordeaux, a city that has long been nicknamed the "sleeping beauty". The city center of Bordeaux is still very active with its numerous shops, you will easily find nice bars and restaurants at the bend of a street to welcome you. Nevertheless we remain on a mitigated impression with the city of Bordeaux, we find beautiful monuments, beautiful shopping streets but it misses a little of life in its big arteries. Its nickname of "sleeping beauty" is still relevant in 2021.

The ecological transition

You will find everything that can run on an electric motor in the streets of Bordeaux. Of course it is at the expense of the pedestrian who risks his life every moment in the streets of this city.

A shopping street

Be careful with the perspectives if you come to Bordeaux for the first time, it is often necessary to walk a lot, the streets are big and wide. It is not a very pedestrian-friendly city.

At the end of the street is the Place des Quinconces

The monument to the Girondins, place des Quinconces,

Very beautiful fountain, a must see. The monument is dedicated to the deputies of Girondins who died during the French Revolution. You can see the Republic perched on its chariot throwing in a precipice men symbolizing Lie, Ignorance and Vice. Quite a program.

The banks of the Garonne

It's beautiful and it's very long. The right word would be boring.
