Continuing with my travel posts.
This time - Mont Saint Michel
It is a small tidal island and part of the UNESCO World Heritage Sites. The island is just off the coast of Lower-Normandy.
Though it's definitely very picturesque and nice, I was a bit disappointed. I studied about this place in art history so I expected the place to be very historic and mighty, when in reality the streets were filled with souvenir shops, restaurants, hotels, etc. I admit, it looked absolutely amazing from the distance and the view was great from the top, but the some of the inside was a let-down, at least for me.
All in all, I'm still more than happy that I went there - it's still Mont Saint Michel, one of the most beautiful sights in Normandy.
