The city has
excellent museums, lively nightlife and beaches close by. Wide avenues, neoclassical
architecture and well-tended parks all give the city a certain 18th-century
grandeur. An ethnically diverse population and a lively university community
of some 60,000 students complete the picture.
Life is
lived well in Bordeaux, where food and wine have been elevated to a high art
and châteaux-turned-hotels pamper you with gourmet restaurants, spas
and crystalline swimming pools. Bike through fertile vineyards of grapes and
explore medieval villages. Perhaps you'll choose to play a round of golf at
one of the impeccably maintained greens. At night, stay in some of France's
finest hotels, lingering on the terrace each evening, wishing the day would
never end.
