The giant stones at Karnak Stonehenge weigh tens of tons or even hundreds of tons. Productivity was low in ancient times. What is purpose of placing such a large stonehenge? It remains a mystery to this day.
Vannes is first stop of our unmanned vehicle in Brittany. As in most small French towns, "old town" of this town is surrounded by sections of ancient city walls. Walking along ancient city walls, you can enjoy beautiful scenery of city. Looking down into lower part of city, traditional wood-reinforced buildings of Brittany have been preserved in city. If you look closely, you can see that many of balconies outside Vannes houses are actually part of antique city wall.
The Galena Laundry Pool is located on south side of garden outside city wall of Vanna. It is a landmark of Vann and is known as most beautiful building of Vann. Built in early 19th century on banks of La Marle, laundry pool is today a favorite haunt of artists, and artists can often be seen here looking for inspiration.
Sweeping city streets, traveling light, lightweight and compact EOS M5 micro single camera captures beautiful scenery of mankind, and it's very convenient for me to open touch screen shutter to take pictures with one hand.
This is one of many old wooden-walled houses in old town of Vannes. He is known for his marble bust on corner outside house. The locals called this statue "Vana and his wife" (Vannes and this is a woman). This pair of marble statues is said to have been created in 16th century. The wife on left and man on right Vanner. The expressions of characters are very happy. Now statue in hand is damaged, judging by pose of statue, two must be holding something in their hands. "Vana and his wife" is a famous landmark of city of Vannes.
The long coastline of Brittany brings a lot of seafood such as oysters, crabs, scallops, lobsters, etc., which are produced here in large quantities.
From La Gacilly to Brittany-Vannes-Vannes-base for fresh oyster farming-Carnac Stonehenge, beautiful scenery and delicious seafood all way.
A driving tour in France seems to be as easy as it is in North America. There are many French villages here and it is very convenient to stop and play. It should be noted that there are many roundabouts in France. If you come across more than 5 roundabouts, you must be careful not to make a mistake. My experience is that if you cannot see clearly, just go around roundabout and exit when you see exit clearly. If you see a traffic light, you are about to enter an intersection. city, so you must give way to pedestrians.
