    What are some famous places/monuments in France?

    Normandy D-Day Tour

    I’m doing a poster for my homework, it’s going to be a huge map of France and I want to annotate it with pictures and a few lines about different interesting monuments across the country. The problem is, a lot of them are in Paris and I don’t want to centre the whole thing around one city. So I need well-known sights from other places as well. Here’s what I got so far:
    - Eiffel Tower
    - Normandy Beaches
    - Disneyland
    - Mont St. Michel

    Can you think of anything else I can include?
    I’ve also thought of:
    - Cannes Film Festival
    - The Alps
    - Côte d’Azur (French Riviera)
    - Le Tour de France
    - Palace of Versailles

    You should really include one of the famous Loire Valley Chateaux, perhaps Chambord- http://www.chambord.org
