Bordeaux
There are plenty of places of art that you mustn’t miss. Among the many sights of Bordeaux, we want to suggest you visit: Place de la Bourse, the heart of the city and an evocative place, especially in the evening. The body of water that characterises it, is known all over the world as the “Miroir d’eau” reflecting pool, and the Musée des Beaux-Arts of Bordeaux, where you can see a vast collection of works from 1400 to 1900.
Travel Documents
Identity Card
An identity card valid for leaving the country allows entry into European Union countries. However, please note that there have been reports of difficulties in some countries with the recognition of renewed and stamped paper identity cards, as well as the refusal of electronic ID cards renewed with a certificate issued by the municipality.
Passport
An ordinary passport is valid for all countries whose governments are recognized by the Italian one, except for any legal restrictions, and can be obtained by all citizens of the Republic. A passport is issued (and renewed) by the police and abroad, by diplomatic and consular representatives. It is valid for 10 years, but in some cases provided for by current legislation, this validity may be shortened.
