Normandy: War-Torn Yet Full of Life

Rick Steves' Europe Travel Guide © 2004 | In peaceful Normandy, we explore the half-timbered charm of Rouen, reflect on Monet's lily ponds in Giverny, peek in on local artisans, and set up an easel at Honfleur's harbor. We venture into composer Eric Satie's eccentric world and feast on the finest of Normandy cuisine. After pondering sacrifice and celebrating freedom on the D-Day beaches, we hike with pilgrims to the enchanted island abbey of Mont St-Michel. #ricksteves #ricksteveseurope #normandy Visit www.ricksteves.com/ for more information about this destination and other destinations in Europe.
