The Chartrons district

A twenty-minute stroll will take you to the city's art district with its famous Rue Notre Dame, home to artisans, antique dealers and fashionable decorators. There's no shortage of museums and heritage sites to visit, including the Musée Mer Marine (Maritime Museum), the CAPC (Museum of Contemporary Art), the Musée des Douanes (Customs Museum) or the Bourse Maritime (Maritime Stock Exchange).
A relaxing, cultural atmosphere
Along the Garonne river
Strolling along the Garonne, enjoy the left bank's lively atmosphere and check out the "guinguettes" (open-air cafés) on the right bank.
This is undoubtedly one of the best ways to discover the city with a lovely 45-minute stroll along the Garonne river. On Sundays, cross through the Chartrons market to reach the Cité du Vin and the famous Bassins des Lumières before heading to the Halles de Bacalan. It's home to 23 artisans, where you can eat or have a coffee.
