Porte Cailhau: Entry Ticket
Climb the stairs and view the bridge
Savor the timeless elegance of Bordeaux, the undisputed capital of the world’s finest wines, where the grand Place de la Bourse and its shimmering Miroir d’Eau reflect the harmonious 18th-century façades of the UNESCO-listed Port of the Moon along the Garonne River, the majestic Cathédrale Saint-André and Tour Pey-Berland tower above the historic center, and the golden limestone streets of the Triangle d’Or invite leisurely strolls past chic boutiques and historic wine merchants.
Wander the lively Marché des Capucins for fresh oysters and canelés, sip legendary Médoc, Saint-Émilion, and Sauternes in intimate wine bars or grand châteaux just outside the city, cruise the Garonne at sunset past illuminated bridges, or explore the contemporary Cité du Vin museum dedicated to the culture of wine—all in a sophisticated yet relaxed city that perfectly blends centuries of winemaking tradition with modern French flair.
Indulge in entrecôte bordelaise with shallot butter, duck confit, fresh Arcachon Bay oysters, and velvety Bordeaux reds amid warm Bordelais hospitality, riverside cafés, and the unmistakable rhythm of a city that lives for the art of living well.
