France’s “White Cliffs”
I didn’t go to the White Cliffs in the UK, but I went to Normandy across the sea. It’s the same as the White Cliffs. It took 130 million years of accumulation of marine life to form the current 100-meter cliff. Now it’s endless. The sea 🌊, the white cliffs stretching for kilometers, the vast grassland and sky (the golf ⛳️ course is so big that the drone almost lost it), it’s like a wilderness outside the world
If the 🇬🇧White Cliff is the end of the world|🇫🇷then the Elephant Trunk Hill in Normandy may be the Garden of Eden outside the world
This was also the famous "Operation Overlord"-Normandy landing in 1944: nearly three million soldiers crossed the English Channel to Normandy, France. It is also the largest maritime landing operation in the world~

There is a
There is a mountain by the sea in Etretat and a church on the hill. When I came down to the top of the cliff where the church was located, the coastline was like a gentle arm that took the whole town into my arms. An orange-billed seagull sat with me on the edge of the cliff, listening to the sound of the waves. This cold wind is also willing. There are three elephant trunks, like a family of three, playing on the shore. Many of the most famous painters, the most famous of them is Monet, who painted many elephant trunks.
