Bordeaux, la Belle Endormie
Here are a few pictures from a day in Bordeaux back in August. Bordeaux is known as the Sleeping Beauty city because of its historic centre-ville filled with gorgeous buildings that were once covered in ash and soot. Today, the city represents the capital of wine country in France.
The Porte Cailhau, constructed in 1495, was the original entrance to the city.
