Going to the north

When we think about France it reminds us of romantic weekend in Paris, but in reality it’s much more interesting to see the outside destinations then only Paris itself. This huge country is divided into a couple of regions with many attractive places.  My today’s post is dedicated to Saint Malo and Le Mont Saint Michel, both of them are placed in north west of France (Brittany, Normandy).

Saint- Malo is known from the walled city which founded by pirates surrounded by couple of fortifications in the sea. Personally I loved beautiful beach just next to the wall, that during the ebb tide I admired dozens of different sea creatures first time in my life. After long day at the coast I recommend decent meal- crepes with chocolate and bananas, which you can eat in old town.

Even though Le-Mont-Saint Michel is really popular and overcrowded by tourists it’s worth to see as well. It’s an abbey located on the rocky island with the only road available during the ebb tide. For me it was fascinating that after few hours you can’t get back home because of high tide. Everybody should mention the middle age machinery supplying the food and stone blocks into the high abbey area.

I hope you’ll enjoy my post and stay tuned for more. Cya
