Bordeaux owes its reputation and wealth as much to its wines as to its commercial port. Although the port has disappeared from the city center, it has left us many remarkable vestiges.
Today, Bordeaux's quays are the city's most popular promenade. But it wasn't always so: until the 1980s, they were completely devoted to the port of Bordeaux. The " Port de la Lune" welcomed liners and cargo ships, and saw hundreds of dockers at work from dawn.
But what remains of this period today? On this tour from the Place de la Bourse to the Bassins à flots, you'll discover the history of the Port of Bordeaux and pick out the many remaining traces of this (almost) bygone past.
