Mont Saint-Michel as Seen by a Drone is Amazing
More than 3 million people visit Mont Saint-Michel each year yet none have seen it quite like this. The island in Normandy, France is famous for the magnificent abbey which overlooks the town below. It’s a stunning sight but this video by Freeway Productions goes one step further. Using a NHK Tokyo drone their team captured Mont Saint-Michel in a way that has never been done before. You even get close up and personal with the golden statue of Saint Michel at the very top of the abbey’s spire. Simply amazing.
