France Bon
Bon jour to the land of perfection!
France is among the very few countries in the world that always attract an opinion, irrespective of whether it is a positive one or not, in the mind of a person. Sure, France has its share of loopholes and un-pleasantries, but which country doesn’t? Besides, its sights and sounds are something one would not have seen in a lifetime! Crowded by celebrities, politicians and business tycoons, there’s little to ignore in the country of the Eiffel Tower. The food and wine too, are among the best in the world. Every evening, as the fabled champagne is popped open, celebrations like none other begin to take shape in the trendy nightclubs. Going deeper, every part of the country has its own specialty. There’s the River Seine that offers the most captivating boat cruises, a taste of royalty at the Versailles castle, an enchanting travel down south in the Mediterranean sea for exploring the Roman civilisation’s last strands, zipping past the open skies in a jet at Nice and St. Tropez, and skiing in the Alps! There’s something to keep one entertained at all times.
Mont St-Michel: The soaring towers and turrets of the Mont St-Michel abbey have since forever been showcased as the signature image of Northern France. The abbey emerges from white sands, and sits in crowning glory at the highest point of a small island, surrounded by ramparts and battlements. It is said that the abbey was founded in the 8th century when the archangel Michael visited the bishop of Avranches in his dream. Even today, a gilded copper statue of Michael slaying a dragon has been preserved, as a symbol of good’s triumph over evil. Moving on, the bay around Mont St-Michel is pretty famous for its tides, and depending on the season and the gravitational pull of the moon, the difference between high and low tides can be as much as 15 metres, even though the area is completely surrounded by sea during the seasonal equinoxes. A unique phenomenon is that at any point in time during the year, mammoth amounts of water can flow in; the Mont could be having sand all around for miles in the morning, and in the early evening hours, the place would look like a mini tsunami had struck!
Paris: The city is almost like a person, with its diverse moods and romantic attitude! The ‘City of Lights’, as it is often referred to, has in fact nothing to do with the lights that glitter and shimmer during the night. Instead, it’s the fact that not too many centuries back, the city was a boiling pot for philosophers, scientists, poets and other eminent literary personalities who illuminated the city. Coming to the ground reality, the Eiffel Tower and the Louvre Museum are splendid sights, while the food and fashion scene is simply the best in the world!
