Capital of the Basque countryside, Bayonne benefits from an exceptional geographic situation by being situated in the confluence of two rivers: Adour and Nive, which join before throwing themselves into the quite close ocean. Bayonne is famous for the beauty of its restored secular houses, its castles, its citadel, its banks and its museums. Houses shutters are of all colours (yellow, green, blue, red) and really outline the picturesque side of the city!

Bayonne is also famous for its various traditions, such as the Basque ball game, the ham fairs, the bullfights, the festivals in August... Finally, the city boasts numerous specialites such as the famous ham Bayonne or the delicious Bayonne chocolate.
