In the north of France, the Normandy region is one of the most attractive areas for a trip or getaway. Beaches, castles, landscapes full of charm and a great history are some of the reasons to visit this area. Normandy is famous for its white cliffs and the D-Day landings during World War II. This vast region has a great military history, including the Norman invasion of England in 1066. Learn about the traditions and history of the area as you visit the picturesque villages. One of the most beautiful features is the island village of Mont Saint-Michel, which looks like something out of a fairy tale. Visit the quaint stores and restaurants and head to the highest part of the island to see the Mont Saint-Michel Abbey. This UNESCO World Heritage Site is architecturally impressive. However, what is truly spectacular is the location of the abbey and the tides that surround it. Which make this place unique in the world. Rouen is a real city-museum spread through its cobbled streets and half-timbered houses, which populate the old town, always dominated by its cathedral, by the tower of Gros-Horloge of medieval origin and that hides a clockwork mechanism that works since the fourteenth century, and by the memorial to Joan of Arc, which recounts the trial of this character who died burned at the stake in the center of Rouen. If there is a town that you can not miss if you travel to Normandy, that is Honfleur. A maritime village that invites you to walk through its picturesque streets, while observing its old houses. The great attraction of the village is the port surrounded by beautiful houses, which make this place really magical. The Cliffs of Etretat is one of the most beautiful natural places to see when traveling to Normandy, and do not forget to visit other equally impressive cliffs, such as Dieppe, Fecamp, Cap Fagnet, and Veules-les-Roses. Normandy is famous for its apples which are used to produce cider and an emblematic drink, Calvados. Also delicious are its cheeses, butter and of course its fish and seafood, especially oysters. Taste the typical dishes, enjoy a tasting in the Camembert cheese farms and try the seafood in the restaurants located in front of the sea.
