St Michael's Mount

St Michael's Mount is a tidal island just off the coast of Marazion in Cornwall, crowned by a medieval castle and church. Connected to the mainland by a granite causeway passable at low tide, the island has been a place of pilgrimage, a fortress and a private home for centuries. The castle rooms tell stories from its rich history, while the subtropical gardens cascade down the rocky slopes with exotic plants thriving in the mild maritime climate.
