Also known as Place Royale, this is a perfect example of Bordeaux architecture at the end of the 18th century. This is a beautiful line of archways and slate roofs, with an impressive fountain in the centre - a setting made even more magnificent when it is lit up at night. There is a superb view of the Garonne river’s right bank from this square.

Bordeaux Wine Festival
Jun 24th, 2010 to Jun 27th, 2010
Extreme Wine Tasting
Bordeaux's wine festival takes place every other June. The surrounding village vineyards hold wine-related shows, parades, concerts and a dance all along the quays, inviting visitors to sample and celebrate the region's vintage. To enjoy it to the fullest, buy a pass-dégustation (tasting pass) which includes a glass and a swipe card giving you access to all the festival areas. Passes are available at the tourist office several days in advance, or you can get one at the festival. The festival takes place along the Garonne River, stretching from the Pont de Pierre to the Bourse Maritime.
