Do the two of you appreciate fine wines? Or are you looking for that perfect vacation that emphasizes not only fine wines but also awesome romantic adventures? Well, there are certainly lots of romantic things to do in Bordeaux, the wine capital of the world. Visit Cathedrale St-Andre, a magnificent monument which is comparable to Paris' Notre Dame. Consecrated by Pope Urbain II in 1096, the Cathedrale St-André was built in the shape of a Latin cross with a unique nave that is over 124 meters long. The marriage of Eleanor of Aquitaine with Louis VII, future king of France, was held in this cathedral in 1137. The organ is particularly noteworthy, and concerts are held regularly.
Join the Bordeaux Wine and Culinary Tour. Food and wine are a huge part of life in France, and the area of Bordeaux is no exception. In fact, wine-tasting in Bordeaux is a truly wonderful experience and will surely be one of the most memorable experiences of your life.
Take a stroll through Parc Riviere with your loved one. The park used to be the grounds of a private residence in the 19th Century. Today it is a public park with lush greenery and several types of gardens offering you a perfect respite from the bustling city center. You can also find in its premises a gardening workshop and a Tisane (herbal tea) house. Old ruins of Baron Alfred's castle, who owned the place a century ago, can be found right in the heart of the garden. There are plenty of romantic things to make your stay in Bordeaux a holiday experience to remember; take your pick, and let the hand-holding begin.
