Imagine.

Imagine an entire theme park dedicated to wine. Well, if you love a glass of vino every once in a while and it's your drink of choice on every night out, then this place will be like something from your dreams. La Cité du Vin - or The City of Wine - has opened in Bordeaux and it's a must for all you wine lovers out there. https://www.instagram.com/p/BvtSdBTFUKI/?utm_source=ig_web_copy_link Of course, there's no mad rollercoaster rides or bumper cars (that would just be silly), but there are 800 varieties of wine, 20 wine-themed sections and exhibits, which includes a totally immersive, simulated boat ride. Tbh, we'd take that over a 60-foot drop any day. The park also boasts architecture that was designed purely out of wine inspiration, including wine in a bottle, swirling wine around in a glass and knotted vine stocks. It's basically just wine world. https://www.instagram.com/p/BxzOTrHCjTy/ And it's pretty affordable, too. For just €24 you can gain access to the park, get a tour and also see a guided exhibition. While for €42 you can get all of that plus a workshop on 'A Glass of Wine in Markets of the World'. A day of drinking wine? Yep, we'll definitely take it.
