The story

Story · Cap Blanc-Nez

  • nl

You're standing on Cap Blanc-Nez, a chalk headland on the English Channel in northern France, close to the village of Escalles. The top rises 134 metres above the sea. Take a look at that white wall below you. Does it remind you of something? Across the water in England stand the famous white cliffs of Dover, and they're almost identical.
