Download or read book Brittany and Normandy Travel Guide written by Brendan Kavanagh and published by Createspace Independent Publishing Platform. This book was released on 2014-04-16 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A visit to Brittany will leave you feeling like you're in a Celtic fairytale with many towns retaining their medieval architecture. Its dramatic windswept coastline changes with the weather from hauntingly, beautiful to utterly sublime - made all the more mysterious when you learn about Brittany's swashbuckling pirate past. Alternatively, a night in Rennes, Quimper or Brest is sure to be a relaxing experience of fine food, wine and entertainment. To the east, Normandy was the famed landing place for the World War II D-Day liberating forces. With port cities like Le Havre and Cherbourg bordering the English Channel in the north, to the picturesque Mont Saint-Michel and Bayeux (site of the famous Tapestry), Normandy is a wondrous place to visit.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from A Handbook for Travellers in France: Being a Guide to Normandy, Brittany The chapters into which the book is divided are arranged according to the ancient Provinces, as being less minute, more historical, and better understood by English than the more intricate subdivisions of Departments. Though the latter are universally used by the French themselves, some centuries must elapse before Champagne and Burgundy cease to be remem bered for their wines, Pe'rz'gord for its pies, and Provence for its oil; nor will it be easy to obliterate the recollection of Wil liam of Normandy, Margaret of Anjou, and Henri of Navarre.

What’s Covered? Get to Know Normandy, Brittany, and the Best of Northern France: Sculpted with cliff-lined coasts, Normandy has been home to saints and sculptors, with a dramatic past marked by Mont-St-Michel’s majestic abbey, Rouen’s towering cathedral, and the D-Day beaches. Brittany, a long arm of rocky land stretching into the Atlantic, is a place unto itself with its own language and time-defying towns such as Gauguin’s Pont-Aven and the pirate haven of St-Malo. Although the region of Alsace-Lorraine is bordered by the Rhine and often looks and sounds German, its main sights--18th-century Nancy, medieval Strasbourg, and the lovely Route du Vine--remain proudly French. Don’t miss Champagne Country, the capital of bubbly, and the four Gothic cathedrals nearby. No trip to France would be complete without a stop in Paris. A quayside vista that takes in the Seine, a passing boat, Notre-Dame, the Eiffel tower, and mansard roofs all in one generous sweep is enough to convince you that this is indeed the most beautiful city on Earth. Note: This ebook edition includes photographs and maps that will appear on black-and-white devices but are optimized for devices that support full-color images.
