Two small villages, Le Petit Andely and Le Grand Andely, form this Norman town on the banks of the Seine, where the river bends through chalky white cliffs and the ruins of a medieval castle loom high above. Visiting the town is like taking a walk through France of the past — you’ll see plenty of half-timbered houses, centuries-old churches, and bucolic countryside. Located about 56 miles from Paris, it’s a common stop on many Seine River cruises.
