                <description><![CDATA[In the UK we turn our old churches into bars and clubs, in Bordeaux the church St Simeon has become Utopia, an arty cinema. <br><br>I wouldn't normally go to the cinema when I'm abroad, but Utopia would have to be an exception. It has a good cafe and five screens showing good films from all over - France, the UK, the US, Bosnia, Algeria, Hungary, Italy, Egypt, Iran, Tunisia, Japan, Finland, Mongolia, Spain, Romania, and China were all represented by films within a couple of months when I last checked. The architecture of many of the salles just adds to the atmosphere and convinces you that you are somewhere special. Films are normally subtitled.]]></description>

                <description><![CDATA[The Grand Theatre hosts the National Opera of Bordeaux, with a season of opera, ballet and classical music running largely from September to June. The building itself is beautiful and ornate. <br><br>Concerts en balade are held on the first Sunday of every month and have a uniform seat price of 5 euros. They usually take place in the morning or early afternoon and cover music from Mozart to Messaien and Holst to Haydn. You can reserve online.]]></description>

                <description><![CDATA[This warship was built in 1959 and after a successful career became a 10,000-ton museum in 1993. A two-hour tour gives almost unlimited access to this stately cruiser, allowing visitors to see the admiral's quarters, the infirmary, engine-rooms, kitchens, and much more. Educational entertainment for the entire family.]]></description>
