I'm creating a resource database of travel favorites! I would love to have your help! Share pictures and stories of your favorite spots around the world

Picture: June 2019
Mont St Michel, France. In the 8th century, Aubert, the bishop of Avranches, claimed that the Archangel Michael came to him in a vision and asked him to build a mountaintop church. It became a major Benedictine abbey attracting scholars and pilgrims for centuries. Over the years, it has served as many things, including a prison and a fort. It withstood a 30 year siege by the English. The English never captured it. During high tide it becomes an island. It has been designated a UNESCO World Heritage Site and is visited by millions of tourists every year.
