Unlike the Elephant Trunk Hill in Guilin, Guangxi, the cliffs of Etretat in the Normandy region of France differ in two main aspects: one is the difference between river and sea, and the other is the number of formations. Etretat boasts three such formations: the youngest elephant has seen less of the world and is charmingly white; the middle one has seen more and is elegant; the oldest has endured hardships and is rugged. The youngest and middle elephants are well-known due to the works of Impressionist painters like Monet and are located at opposite ends of the beach. To see the oldest, one must climb atop the middle elephant's back, and to view all three takes at least two hours. For those driving, parking in the red zone near the visitor center costs 45 euros for over five hours, while the orange zone, about a five-minute walk away, charges only 7.5 euros for the same duration. Walking a few extra steps can lead to significant savings.
