Mont Saint Michel Castle – France

        Mont-Saint-Michel is one of France's great wonders, it is a small tidal island situated just 1km off the Normandy coast close to the border with Brittany and connected by a small causeway. The rocky islet is made up of a mediaeval town and topped by the 13th century Benedictine abbey of Mont-Saint-Michel.



           Once you reach the top it's time to explore the abbey itself which is accessed by a steep and narrow stairway. After visiting the abbey you should take some time and your camera to stroll around the ramparts at the top of the mount as there are some really beautiful views across the bay.
