Stroll through the Botanic Gardens with more than 1000 species, one of the reasons for Bayonne holding the prestigious 4 flowers category of the Ville et Village Ffleurie competition.Nearby you can see remnants of the ramparts of the town from three different eras: Roman ramparts, ramparts from the time of Francois I (16th C) and ramparts designed by the famous Vauban (17th C).
