Province of Normandy

Only a few hours from Paris and a lovely drive through the countryside you will soon come to a place along the coast of France, settled in between the two French Provinces of Brittany and Picardy. A place of culture offering something for everyone, a region in France called “Normandy”. Where apple trees bloom, a patchwork of glowing mustard grow, a place to daydreaming of yesteryear and take in the broad array of sites and attractions.. This is a place where tragedy once loomed and great victories were gained.
