France is a land steeped in ancient history and rich cultural heritage. It presents a journey to Mont-Saint-Michel, where the church, built in the 8th century, stands as a testament to the Archangel Michael’s divine order. In Paris, Père Lachaise Cemetery beckons with its expansive grounds, where 70,000 marked plots hold the eternal legacy of countless souls, including famous figures from history.
