Of
course, with all the landing beaches
(Omaha, Juno, Sword, Arromanches, la Pointe du Hoc…),
many military cemeteries, the Caen
Memorial, Sainte Mere l'Eglise, there are many
sites which are worth to be visited if you are interested
in history. In addition to this great historic patrimony,
Normandy also owns two world marvels: Le
Mont Saint Michel and Etretat
cliffs.
Le
Mont Saint Michel is registered at the world patrimony by
the UNESCO. This medieval gothic abbey overlooks a wonderful
bay.
Etretat is not but these cliffs are so amazing that they
could be part of the UNESCO patrimony.
Then Honfleur with its tiny nice harbor, is a landmark for
Normandy.
Normandy
will also provide you one of the most beautiful countryside
of France. Forests, fields with beautiful cows, castles,
beautiful typical houses… you will have many places
to visit.
In
Normandy, you will also enjoy typical French cooking. Cream,
camembert cheese, apples
from which cider and calvados are produced, are the main
specialities of Normandy. Don't look for fat free food,
you won't find any.
Last
but not least, Normandy is also an ideal place for those
who like horses. Deauville,
Cabourg (Proust's Balbec),
and Caen all organize horse races and Grand Prix during
the summer season. All over Normandy, you'll see calm horses
in beautiful fields with green grass.
ComeToFrance
propose you to dive into Normandy's tradition and patrimony.
Either for one day or more, we have many beautiful places
to stay and activities to enjoy. For example in Barfleur,
Beuvron en Auge, Saint
Ceneri Le Gerei, Gerberoy,
Lyons la Forêt are
ones of the Most Beautiful Villages of France.
