Bearing in mind that they are famous for their Bordeaux, surprising us what they have been waiting for? France is opening a theme park which celebrates the joy of wine. Called La Cité du Vin (or the City of Wine) in Bordeaux, new theme park/museum is designed to resemble wine swirling in a glass and the top of the building provides a stunning 360-degree view of Bordeaux. Of course, it’s all wine, everything.
