One of many beautiful capes or pointes in Bretagne. Very nice late at night, when you can be all alone, when there is still just enough light to enjoy it

This medieval Gothic cathedral is perhaps the city's most prominent architectural landmark.
Reviewed By Morvoren - Truro, United Kingdom
This cathedral is quite rightly a National Monument. Admission is free. The Gothic architecture is amazing outside and in. The interior is light and spacious and the ambiance is relaxed. It is worth doing a little research before your visit to get the most out of it, especially if you don't speak French.

Ok it's can be named as the edge of the world, breathtaking natural beauty...amazing place to visit. ***Attention **** though sun protection is absolutely necessary **** It is a walk in a one went path but there is no shadow at all there and there is some wind, we can say it's almost cold....and here is the tricky part, it doesnt feel at all like you need sun protection but if you dont want to end up with serious sun burns really cover you :) And enjoy the magic!

What a treasure! Amazing plants from foreign climes surviving so well in this maritime environment - well worth a visit if you are in the area - it packs a lot in to a small area but well thought out and planned - if you know plants you won’t be disappointed....

Went to Morlaix twice during our recent stay in Carantec. Such a beautiful town with lovely shops and restaurants. What grabs your attention though, right from the moment you look around is the viaduct. Built in just 2 years (1861-1863) the top part is still used as a train line and the bottom is a pedestrian walkway which strides over the town. The steps are a bit of an effort but totally worth it and has to be done. Each archway has its own spotlight and I just wished I could've seen how they lit it up at night as I'm sure it would've been breathtaking. There is a lovely information board in the middle looking over the town centre with a lovely view at the Hotel de Ville opposite (another gorgeous building). There is even a little part of it giving you the details in English for those who's French isn't what it should be lol. If there are any drawbacks they are few. The side that I scaled the steps of there was no access for our pushchair meaning it had to stay at the bottom while we made the slow climb with 2 small children (who actually really enjoyed the steps and are still young enough to see steps as fun, rather than the soul-crushing pathway to misery they truly are!). The other drawback is that like all these things, the time needed to get everything out of the experience is short, so if you were making a trip especially for the viaduct then prepare for a short stop. On the plus side, Morlaix is truly lovely and well worth spending a diverting afternoon lounging around it's shops and cafe's. In conclusion, while the viaduct itself may not be worth going a long way out of your way for, the town of Morlaix with the viaduct and everything in it, really is!

A l'extrême ouest du Finistère, sur la commune de Plougonvelin en Pays d'iroise, la pointe Saint-Mathieu se dresse face à la mer d'Iroise. C'est un lieu de promenades agréables en toute saison où se côtoient le GR®34 et le Parc naturel marin d’Iroise, l'abbaye édifiée à partir du XIème siècle et le phare construit en 1835, le Mémorial national des marins disparus en mer et le sémaphore.
