What are the top things to do in Bordeaux

La Cite Du Vine – This modern cultural center is the hub of everything wine and futuristic projects. In a simpler word, La Cite Du Vine is a high-tech museum teaching you about the history of wine, and where and how it’s made around the world. The architecture of this 3,000-square-metre building, with its 55-metre tower, is dazzling, and the tour ends with a visit to the bar where you can pair a glass of wine with equally delicious vistas of Bordeaux and the Garonne.

Place de la Bourse – When Bordeaux evolves into the modern town it is now, this majestic square on the left bank of the Garonne that was built in the 1720s remains there. Louis XV’s favorite architect, Jacques Gabriel, designed it and it quickly became a symbol for the city. At this square, you can get a closer look at the macarons (sculpted faces) beneath the arches of the buildings. This place is perfect for taking photos, and in the summer, little ones go crazy for the water.

La Grosse Cloche - During the 15th century, La Grosse Cloche was the old belfry for Bordeaux' town hall. Now it is some of the remaining fragments from the city's medieval period and is built on the remnants of the 13th-century Porte Saint-Éloy, a former gate in the old ramparts. You can get a good look at the bell from the below that dates to 1775 and weighs a hefty 7,750 tons. Grosse Cloche is not as busy as other tourist places except for the big public celebrations like Bastille Day.
