The picturesque region of Aquitaine is located in the Dordogne, in south west France. Around a thousand small towns and settlements were founded by the English here during the 14th century - giving the region a rich history and fell of it's own. Today the area is again popular with English, holiday makers and increasingly the booming ex-pat property market.

- Bordeaux Markets
Bordeaux has a whole range of markets to choose from. There's nowhere better to soak up the local atmosphere or test out the Bordelais delicacies. - Palais Rohan
The wealth of Bordeaux is symbolised in its grand Town Hall, known as the Palais Rohan, prominently located on the Place Pey-Berland. - Basilique Saint-Seurin
The Saint-Seurin Basilica is one of the most interesting historical and religious sites in Bordeaux, with architectural designs dating from the Merovingian era up until the 14th century. - Musée d'Aquitaine
The Musée d'Aquitaine is one of Bordeaux's better museums. This well-organised home of historical knick-knacks is housed in the attractive 19th-century Faculty of Arts and Sciences, a short walk from the pretty Tour Pey-Berland. - Some Serious Shopping
As well as its vast array of markets, Bordeaux also boasts commercial centres that feature the best of French high street labels for both the budget traveller and those yearning for a little plastic indulgence.
