    This is the museum I'm most satisfied with, love, and want to visit in France. I booked a ticket for 4 o'clock because I had other plans, thinking that would be enough for me to visit. I regretted it and didn't finish it in three hours! The interactive experience was great! I was so happy after experiencing each one. The details are also very well done, and the flow design is very reasonable. I really recommend it.

    I never thought that primitive humans who couldn't even get enough food 20,000 years ago would have the leisure to paint. This museum is very famous in Europe and the entire Western world. I queued for a long time here. I heard that the real cave has been closed and people are not allowed to enter, but this museum has used a lot of high-tech to replicate the entire cave, allowing us to visit. It's amazing. I brought my children to visit and felt it was very educational.

    Outstanding place. A view knock-outs me every time, and i cannot get bored. You can just sit and watch all Day. Convenient Access through charming, right streets, and spacious parking. A "must-see" type of place

    The Saint-André Archbishop Church in Bordeaux is the most famous church here. It is very large in scale. It is no worse than Notre Dame de Paris. The whole building is very simple and has very complex and exquisite sculptures. The two towering towers are its symbol. The interior is also magnificent and looks very solemn. It is definitely one of the most worthwhile attractions in Bordeaux.

    If I had a drone, I could capture this rare and amazing view! The Pyla Dune is a rare seaside desert in Europe. To the east of the dune is a vast forest, and to the west is the vast Atlantic Ocean. The movie "Love Is Not Blind" was filmed here. If you come to Bordeaux, you must visit the nearby Pyla Dune. The scenery is unforgettable.

    This is the prototype building of the Paris Opera House, the most beautiful world heritage site in Bordeaux. Famous European musicals are performed every September to June of the following year. Ticket prices in the theater are priced according to different seats. You must apply for an annual pass to have a chance to grab a good seat. Of course, the best seats will definitely be reserved. However, for novices, it is still a good experience to spend 15 euros to buy a ceiling seat before the show starts.

    The Great Bell Gate of Bordeaux is the center of Bordeaux. It is a clock tower in the style of an ancient castle, which looks very much like the European Middle Ages. On one side of the clock tower is modern Bordeaux, and on the other side is the ancient Bordeaux Old Town. Walking through the Great Bell Gate, it feels like traveling through time and space, with a different feeling.
