Hi, walkers. I’m Jay, Relaxed walker.
Today we are going to walk on the French street and take a break from “Korean walk video”.
A 10min walk in the Capucins Market which is one of the oldest markets in France and it rightfully carries the title “The belly of Bordeaux”. Walk with real sounds as always. Enjoy!

안녕하세요. Relaxed Walker 평온한 산책가 Jay 입니다.
오늘은 한국걷기영상을 잠시 쉬어가는 의미로 어제 촬영한 프랑스 남부도시 보르도 걷기여행 영상을 소개합니다. 이번 영상은 보르도에서 가장 큰 재래시장인 Capucins 시장을 소개합니다.
그럼 Enjoy!
Some info (
The indoor market and surrounding square are named after Capuchin monks, who wore sackcloth robes and a “capuce”, or hood.
It was already known in the 18th century for its cattle market, before the market gardeners from the surrounding area moved in and set up their stalls. The Baltard-style market building, with atrium windows and cast-iron pillars recovered from pavilions at the Paris Exhibition, was inaugurated in 1881.
In 1999, the addition of a glass roof and awnings let more light into this vast building, which houses over 80 retailers and a number of refreshment stalls and restaurants, open from Tuesday to Sunday morning.
Despite the draughts, the “Capus” market has never lost its friendly, human warmth, cheerful racket, and mouth-watering bouquet of flavours, featuring cheese, seafood, fruit, and vegetables.
It’s worth braving the crowds to watch the fascinating show that plays out in this superb décor. Hot tip: head for the Capucins market in the early morning to beat the crowds. You will be able to take your time wandering around this maze of delicious treats, smell the scent of the sea and exotic fruit, inspect the mouth-watering Basque pork products and free-range chickens, treat yourself to a “dune blanche”, a rich puff pastry filled with mousseline cream, and have a coffee at “Poulette’s”. When you Leave the market, the surrounding cafés and fine food shops will be open for business. It is impossible to leave empty-handed, thirsty, or hungry!
