"The land of the megalithes stones or the beaches!" Carnac by gwened
Carnac Travel Guide: 55 reviews and 197 photos
UNESCO contender and a vast empty space in history as trying to figure how these massive stones got here and by whom its a great puzzle, very popular with crowds from all over, and the stone is a central part in Breton life, even houses and driveways are decorated with them.
The best part is that I live about 20kms from here lol!!! My backyard beach.
the central beach , very close to everything and the IN place to be in town
part of the Lucien Barriere group and on the bourg or city side of Carnac
- Pros:the megalithes capital of the world
- Cons:better by car
- In a nutshell:The megalithes and the beaches a natural beauty
