Port of the Moon
This university town in the south-west of France is located on a wide turn of the Garonne River and is therefore known as "Port of the Moon". Bordeaux promises you unadulterated enjoyment against a historical backdrop. The old town, which is a UNESCO World Cultural Heritage site, is lined with numerous cafes, bars and clubs, as well as jazz and blues venues . Experience the immense culture and the lively international ambience with 70,000 students from all over the world!
The wine-growing region Bordeaux is the largest of its kind with 80% of the production based on the typical dry red wine. Besides wine, Bordeaux is known for its exquisite gastronomy; fresh oysters, seafood, fish, beef, duck or goose make the culmination of culinary delights - and vegetarians get their money's worth in the cuisine of the Occitan.
But wait, there’s more! The sandy beaches of the Atlantic, the Pyrenees and the Basque country are just around the corner!
The Langue d'Oïl and Langue d'Oc lanes are also close to Bordeaux. Occitan is not spoken in the city however, so you’ll learn French fast, efficiently and with a lot of fun at our professional and friendly language school - because only joy teaches languages!
