Picnic Lunch @Chateau Smith Haut Lafitte

After the wine tasting, exploring the estate, went to see their vineyard and wine processing, finally I had a special moments to get special experience; picnic lunch in the vineyard forest garden. Host exclusively by the owner of Chateau Smith Haut Lafitte, Mr Daniel Cathiard. The lunch was fantastic, great food, great wine and great venue, and accompany by two dogs, besties of Mr. Cathiard. Another fantastic experience in Bordeaux Chateau. #joonbondtripvlog3

Beautiful Chateau Smith Haut Lafitte

This chateau is absolutely gorgeous, near to the city center or Bordeaux; driving takes around 15 minutes to reach this estate. Wine tasting and underground cellar tours are available; this chateau building design is still well kept. The feel was like back in the 14th century. The owner's daughter is the founder of Caudalie skin care; opposite the wine estate is a five-star resort belonging to the family as well. This estate also has a small shop to purchase wine products and Caudalie skincare. Absolutely beautiful, it is an excellent place for relaxing. #joonbondtripvlog2

A day in Bordeaux city,France ❤️

Bordeaux, hub of the famed wine-growing region, is a port city on the Garonne River in southwestern France. It’s known for its Gothic Cathédrale Saint-André, 18th- to 19th-century mansions and notable art museums such as the Musée des Beaux-Arts de Bordeaux. Public gardens line the curving river quays. The grand Place de la Bourse, centered on the Three Graces fountain, overlooks the Miroir d’Eau reflecting pool. Bordeaux is generally safe and ranks safer than other major cities in France. While violent crime is not common in Bordeaux, theft and vandalism are not unheard of. As a tourist, you will likely be navigating the center of Bordeaux where you are most likely very safe. #CelebrateWithTrip #tripblazers #SpooktacularTrip #fallingforfall

In 2006, Bordeaux Bordeaux built the fountain called Water Mirror miroird'eau on the Garonne River in Garonne. The fountain is designed for interval water spray and is automatically exchanged every 30 minutes. In the non-spraying stage, the square is a large pool that has never been in the back of the foot. People can play with water on it and enjoy the reflection of the city. After 30 minutes, the water is automatically drained and then ejected by a spray nozzle in a mist. The project has now formed a unique landscape in Bordeaux. The ground has a thin layer of water due to the fountain and has a mirror effect, hence the name Mirror Square.

Bordeaux’s Water and Light Museum

This place is so amazing and fun and for only 11 euros (for students) I’ve been to plenty of visual art museums but this one is gigantic. It’s so fun to walk around in the dark with the music and lights reflecting on the water. At the time of my visit, we saw the shows of Salvador Dali and Gaudi. The shows just repeat every hour or so. Great value to chill. I just wish that there were more shows to watch.

A MODERN MUSEUM.

The Cité du Vin is a museum as well as a place of exhibitions, shows, movie projections and academic seminars on the theme of wine located in Bordeaux, France. On August 29, 2018, the Cité du Vin passed the milestone of one million visitors since its opening and in May 2022 that of 2 million visitors. The Permanent Exhibition has up to 9 hours of content, so there is never a dull moment! Don't forget! Whatever the length of your visit, set some time aside to go the Belvedere (8th floor) and taste a glass of wine while admiring a panoramic view of Bordeaux, included in your ticket. #familytrip #mytravelhacks #freehotelstay #historicallandmarks #localguides #familytrip #paris #falltrip #couplestrip #2023 #holidayvacation #passionpassport #mytripvlog #urbanexplorer #tripblazers #awesomepic #cafe #awesomepic #celebratewithtrip #couplestrip #2023travelwish #passionpassport

Modern Wine Museum at Bordeaux

Had a birthday well spent at Bordeaux last weekend. the highlight of the visit was definitely the Cite du Vin, a modern wine museum. The place had vast displays about wine, from its history, used, aromas, varieties and more around the world. The whole museum was so interactive and full of videos, audios, and immersive experiences The place is so big and good for 4 hours! I’m no wine expert but definitely worth a visit.
