I first saw Mont Saint-Michel in a picture in a geography book and immediately fell in love with it. Le Mont Saint Michel(English: Saint Michel's Mount) is a rocky tidal island and a commune in Normandy, France. It is located approximately one kilometer off the country's north coast, at the mouth of the Couesnon River near Avranches.
