At the very top of Reddit users suggestions, with over 160 upvotes, wasMont-Saint-Michel, France.
Its a tiny island topped by a Gothic abbey that looks more like a castle.
Surrounding the abbey is a steep hillside village and a stone wall with turrets.
The island, abbey, and the bay that surrounds it is aUNESCO World Heritage Site.
That didn’t feel so fairy-tale-like.
If you go in the winter just double-check to dress warmly.
The second most upvoted suggestion on Reddit was a recommendation to visit the ancient city of Toledo incentral Spain.
Like Mont-Saint-Michel, there is a castle-like structure perched at the citys highest point.
A wall and elaborate gates surround the UNESCO-preserved old city, adding to the fairy-tale effect.
