Recorded on 27 September 2024 during the day.
Known as 'La Perle d'Aquitaine' (The Pearl of the Aquitaine) and sometimes 'La Belle Endormie' (Sleeping Beauty), the city of Bordeaux has a reputation for wealth and Parisian-style glamour.
Situated on the banks of the Garonne river, the Gironde estuary gives the city direct access to the sea making it an important Atlantic Port and France's second largest at that. It gives off an air of sophistication with its 18th century architecture, ironwork, sculpture and the bourgeois residences.
Bordeaux is a city on the river Garonne in the Gironde department, southwestern France. A port city, it is the capital of the Nouvelle-Aquitaine region, as well as the prefecture of the Gironde department.
The city of Bordeaux proper had a population of 259,809 in 2020 within its small municipal territory of 49 km2, but together with its suburbs and exurbs the Bordeaux metropolitan area had a population of 1,376,375 that same year (Jan. 2020 census), the sixth-most populated in France after Paris, Lyon, Marseille, Lille, and Toulouse.
