Wines and castles, gastronomy,

writers, painters, architecture, the

ocean and the Bassin d'Arcachon,

Saint-Emilion... take a Short

Break in Bordeaux and discover

the city, her cultural heritage and

her traditions.

Bordeaux is also a resolutely

modern city, with such improvements

as the Garonne river quays

redevelopment and the new

tramway in 2003.

Recently inscribed on the

UNESCO World Heritage list,

Bordeaux is acclaimed for her

beauty and uniqueness.

This "Short Break" pays homage

to the wine capital of the world,

and also to her people who helped

turn Bordeaux into one of France's

most beautiful cities.
