8Mont Saint-Michel, France
Mont Saint-Michel is a vision of medieval grandeur rising dramatically from the sea, just off the coast of Normandy, France. This UNESCO World Heritage site is home to an abbey that seems to defy gravity as it perches atop the rocky islet. The village at its base adds to the enchantment, with narrow, winding streets and quaint shops. The ethereal setting of Mont Saint-Michel will transport you straight into a tale of chivalry and romance.
