Cailhau gate, on the Quai Richelieu side, in Bordeaux, in Gironde, in New Aquitaine, France

Bordeaux, the heart of the wine region, is a port city located on the Garonne River in southwestern France. It is renowned for the Gothic cathedral of Saint-AndrÃ©, its mansions built in the 18th and 19th centuries, as well as its art museums such as the Bordeaux Museum of Fine Arts. The public gardens follow the curves of the quays which run along the river. The Place de la Bourse, in the center of which sits the Fountain of the Three Graces, is reflected in the water mirror.
