Here are our top three must-see places we highly recommend exploring, in addition to our charming village of Léhon:

1. **Medieval Dinan**: Medieval Dinan stands proudly as one of Brittany's most impeccably preserved small towns. Resting atop the banks of the Rance River, it has 3 kilometers of formidable ramparts, captivating half-timbered houses, and an abundance of enticing art galleries and craft shops. Its meandering cobbled streets are adorned with delightfully crooked and creaking structures that evoke the essence of the Middle Ages. Be sure not to overlook the picturesque Rue de Jerzual, where it feels as though time itself has halted in its tracks.

2. **Dinan Port and Viaduct**: The port of Dinan emerges as one of the town's most picturesque locales. Along the quay, old stone houses stand sentinel, many transformed into charming waterside restaurants and shops. Additionally, you can admire a 15th-century stone bridge and a viaduct stretching 250 meters long and rising 40 meters high, adorned with ten arches.

3. **Mont Saint Michel**: Regarded as one of France's premier tourist destinations, Mont Saint Michel stands as a UNESCO World Heritage site, captivating visitors with its architectural grandeur and rich history. Welcoming millions of tourists annually, this extraordinary medieval walled city is perched atop a small granite outcrop, crowned by its magnificent gothic abbey.
