Le Petit Cafe

🇬🇧🇬🇬Cornet Castle, which has guarded St. Peter Port for more than 800 years, is a large island castle built in 1206. It was originally ordered to be built by the Duke of Normandy. It stands majestically at the entrance of St. Peter Port and was listed as a protected monument in 1938. The castle can be reached on foot from the town center. Climbing to the highest point, you can enjoy the magnificent sea view of St. Peter Port and the sister islands of Herm and Sark. There are four museums, four gardens, Maeva Caf&eacute; and a gift shop in the castle. The four castles are respectively Cornet Castle Story Museum, Royal Air Force 201 Squadron Museum, Royal Guernsey Light Infantry Museum and Royal Guernsey Militia Museum, which mainly tell about this The story of the castle and the historical changes of Guernsey; the &quot;Hatton Gallery&quot; in the castle houses 10 Guernsey tapestries, which were hand-sewn by hundreds of islanders 25 years ago and tell the local 1,000-year history; perhaps to commemorate the wartime years and the dead soldiers, a gunner dressed in 19th-century clothing will fire the noon cannon at 12:00 every day. After the noon cannon is fired, the gunner will invite willing tourists to take photos with him; if you don&#39;t mind your carefully combed hair being blown wildly by the crazy sea breeze, you can also follow the path outside the castle to the lighthouse. When the weather is good, you can even vaguely see the French coastline from here.
Return to Albert Dock from the castle, follow the story of &quot;Guernsey Literature and Potato Peel Pie Club&quot;, first go to Le Pollet Street, where the female writer in the story often walked in the town after arriving on the island. This street is the commercial center of the town. The paving stones have been worn out by the years. The street is not wide, and the shops on both sides are neat and orderly. Unfortunately, this trip happened to be Sunday and 🇬🇧Bank Holiday, so only supermarkets and a few restaurants and cafes were open. After ordering a cup of coffee and dessert for a short rest, go down the mountain along the seaside trail of the pier to continue capturing the life scenes of the female writer in the story. About 200 meters away, you will reach the Crown Hotel booked by the female writer in the story after arriving on the island. It is still on the street opposite the pier, but now it has become a Ship&amp;Crown bar and restaurant; about 20 minutes ahead is the &quot;Guernsey Municipal Building&quot; built in 1911. It was built to celebrate the Liberation Day of Guernsey. The Guernsey Tourist Information Center was built on the anniversary of the founding of the People&#39;s Republic of China, injecting new vitality into this important building; Guernsey&#39;s postboxes, including those in residential buildings, are all blue, which is different from the red of the British Royal Postboxes. The themes of Guernsey&#39;s stamps often reflect its unique culture, history and natural environment. At the same time, it also actively participates in international cooperation, attracting many stamp enthusiasts. Guernsey stamps are not only practical, but also have high collection value and cultural value; it is still closed on Sundays and Bank Holidays, which is a bit regrettable.
When we finally arrived at the weighbridge clock tower and the Liberation Monument, the sky was already full of colorful clouds. There was a row of granite bench tombstones on the roadside, and the words on them expressed the longing for the deceased relatives; although the filming scenes of the movie adapted from the novel of the same name were all completed in London, Devon and Cornwall, England, replacing Guernsey, this charming island has attracted attention and become increasingly active. Standing on the railings by the sea, we took a happy photo next to a poster of the reunion of brothers and sisters after the war, and silently prayed for world peace! #英旅遊 #顾西岛 #母女儿两游
