Nestled along a semi-circular bend of the Garonne River, the Port of the Moon, or Port de la Lune, has long been the heart of Bordeaux’s commerce and culture. Historically, the left bank of this port bustled with activity, though it experienced a decline with the rise of the automobile. Today, the area has transformed into a vibrant and trendy destination, where visitors can immerse themselves in the local culture. The port’s layout and riverside setting offer a unique backdrop for exploring the city’s dynamic past and present.
