Honfleur, the largest medieval port city

📍Honfleur 🚘 About 2.5 hours from Paris Honfleur is said to have been the largest port in the Middle Ages, although it is not now. It rains often, so it is recommended to bring a raincoat! 💬Viking descendants live here, and the King of France gave this place to settle down and live in order to silence the Vikings, who were unable to withstand their ferocity. A resort town-like atmosphere There are outdoor cafes and restaurants lined up around the port “During the famous Hundred Years’ War, France failed to protect this territory. It was British territory in 1357 and 1419~1450. Afterwards, it prospered to the point of developing into one of the five major ports for the French slave trade.” #SummerTravel
