My Last trip in France

Yesterday I had a chance to visit awesome place which is being consider as one of the most beautiful sites in the world- The Mont Saint Michel

The legend says The Bishop from Avranches decided to build here the first church in 709 cause at the top of the rock there appeared the archangel Michal. From 966 first Benedictines monks settled down who brought fame to this place as to the centrum of the medieval scholarship.


The place has remained a special atmosphere and today when you walk in the hearth of the abbey you can get a feeling going back in time and to stop in the medieval times.


Attraction of this site are a float and refloat which is the highest in the entire Europe (15 metres difference). So you can experience the Mont Saint Michel as a rock mountain raising from the see or from lthe and.

When you spot this miracle place for the first second you will have indeed the feeling the abbey grows skywards just right from the see. The place is an utter harmony of a nature and a human work.

It´s truly THE destination which is worth to see on your own eyes. I can only recommend it...
