Darwin: The Ecosystem

Located on the right bank of the Garonne, not fare from our hotel, the district of Darwin is more than just a regular neighbourhood. It is the actual location of an alternative lifestyle, an ecosystem devoted to ecological transition and activism.

Darwin is a multidimensional experience where street artists, green economy entrepreneurs, organic produce lovers, musicians, sports’ people and walkers mingle… “Concrete Utopia”, “Resilient Urban Regeneration” or city of tomorrow, Darwin challenges, questions and also comes up with solutions. Living, working and consuming differently: a real issue that finds its echo in these 20,000m2.  

Found at: The Darwin district is close to the Bordeaux Saint-Jean train station, which is accessible from ACE Hôtel Bordeaux-Cestas via the A63.
