Beautiful churches and lively market squares

Normandy is known for many reasons; the modern warfare on the Landing Beaches as well as the historic battle of 1066 as depicted on the Bayeux tapestry, its lush countryside and cheese and cider production. There is a lot to explore between the picturesque Honfleur, the modern Caen or the island of Mont Saint Michel.
