Bordeaux, Port of the Moon

France

🎧 Listen to Introduction

Porte-de-Marne is a port city in southwestern France, Bordeaux, classified as an inhabited historic city, an outstanding urban and architectural complex built during the Age of Enlightenment, whose value survived until the first half of the 20th century, with more protected buildings than any other French city except Paris. It is also known for its historical role in the exchange of cultural values for more than 2,000 years, especially since the 12th century, due to commercial links with England and the Low Countries. The urban planning and architectural complex since the early 18th century make the city an outstanding example of innovative classical and neoclassical trends and give it an extraordinary urban and architectural unity and coherence. Its urban morphology represents the success of philosophers who wanted to make the city a melting pot of humanism, universalism and culture.
