The Great Bell Gate of Bordeaux is the center of Bordeaux. It is a clock tower in the style of an ancient castle, which looks very much like the European Middle Ages. On one side of the clock tower is modern Bordeaux, and on the other side is the ancient Bordeaux Old Town. Walking through the Great Bell Gate, it feels like traveling through time and space, with a different feeling.
There is a big clock hanging under the gate of Bordeaux. The big clock gate is also a very important tourist attraction in H Avocado. The inside and outside of the city wall look very exquisite and have a lot of good historical content.

This is the prototype building of the Paris Opera House, the most beautiful world heritage site in Bordeaux. Famous European musicals are performed every September to June of the following year. Ticket prices in the theater are priced according to different seats. You must apply for an annual pass to have a chance to grab a good seat. Of course, the best seats will definitely be reserved. However, for novices, it is still a good experience to spend 15 euros to buy a ceiling seat before the show starts.
The Bordeaux Opera House is a famous opera house in France, second only to the Paris Opera House. The scale of the theater is very grand, a typical Greek palace, the facilities inside the building are also very grand, and the scene is very beautiful. It is definitely worth buying a ticket to enjoy a beautiful opera.

The Place de la Bourse is the world's wine trading center. Every day, tourists and traders from all over the world come here to trade wines from various wineries. It is definitely the most lively place in Bordeaux and is worth a visit.
There is a fountain in front of Bordeaux Market Square. When it is still and the light effect is really like a mirror. Many pictures I saw were taken in the morning just after dawn. If you catch the fountain spraying water and mist is lingering, it looks a bit like a fairyland. There will be a little more people when you go there in the afternoon. You can check in when you pass by. It is quite unique.

Nice museum to know the history of the city related to wine, with a taste test at the end.
The wine and trading museum is also quite large, this huge venue can also see a lot of wine content, the trading museum is also a wine trading center, you can taste the wine.
