Les Bassins des Lumières

Nestled in the South West of France, the city of Bordeaux, has been named one of Europe's best destinations - and it's easy to see why! Bordeaux showcases the best that France has to offer: world renowned food and wine heritage, a growing art and design scene, a stunning historical centre and all just a short trip from the beautiful vineyards and countryside. The city centre is registered as the largest urban UNESCO world heritage site in the world. I have been lucky enough to call Bordeaux my home - on and off - for the last 10 years. Below are 7 things I love to do in my city that will guarantee you make the most of your time here. I walk you through the areas that you won't want to miss and share my favourite spots in the wine capital of France.
