Place de la Bourse is a square in Bordeaux, France and one of the city's most recognisable sights. Built from 1730 to 1775 along the river Garonne, it was a multi-building development designed by architect Ange-Jacques Gabriel. It is within the historic part of the city that has been recognized on the UNESCO World Heritage List as "an outstanding urban and architectural ensemble" of the 18th century.
In the original plan, a statue of King Louis XV of France was erected in the square. This statue was destroyed during the French Revolution. After the destruction of the statue, a Corinthian column-fountain was built on the square. Finally, in 1869 the sculpture Three Graces was installed in the same location.

It really was wonderful to witness the local people as well as the visitors enjoy the reflection pool and the spurts of water coming from the fountain mouths on a warm day during April 2017. The metropolitan has beautiful old buildings and quite a history to it. There is also a wellknown operahouse, historical fountains and superb shops. Public transport works very well.
