    "The bell gate is the center of Bordeaux, an old castle-style bell tower that looks very European in medieval style. On one side of the clock tower is modern Bordeaux, on the other end is the old Bordeaux Old City, through the big bell gate, as if through time and space, with a different feeling."
    Highlights: The Grand Bell Gate is one of Bordeaux's famous monuments. It is located at the entrance of the Saint-Michel neighborhood and used to be the bell tower of the former Bordeaux City Hall. The Great Bell Gate consists of two 40-meter-high circular towers connected in the middle, decorated with a golden lion coat of arms. In the 12th century it was originally four round towers with only one story. It was later changed to its current form in the 15th to 17th centuries. Big bells are used to ring to warn the public in the event of a fire.

    "The Galian Palace is a famous historical monument in Bordeaux. This palace has a history of more than 1,000 years. It has only one wall and passage left, but it is vaguely visible that his past glory is now one of the symbols of Bordeaux. It is also a must-visit attraction to visit Bordeaux. Don't be wrong."
    Highlights: The Palais Garien is the surviving Gallo-Roman ruins in Bordeaux, an open-air amphitheater built in the 3rd century AD that once held 15,000 spectators, and now only a few remnants of the arches remain.

    "The Girondale Monument is a very beautiful monument in Bordeaux. It is an iconic building here. The sculpture of the sea god is very moving. It is definitely worth everyone to enjoy it. You must not miss it."
    Highlights: The Girondins Monument is located in the Place de la Plum in Bordeaux. It was built to commemorate the members of the Girondists who were victims of the Reign of Terror. This is a must-see stop for reviewing the history of the French Revolution. The monument was built from 1894 to 1902. The proposal for the establishment of the monument originated in 1868, and was proposed by the architect Julian Gardé, the grandnephew of the Girondist Elie Gardé. In 1794, Ellie Gardé and other Girondists, and those who helped them, were guillotined there.
