FRANCE Relaxing With Beautiful Nature And Easy Listening Music

France might be famed for its impressive man-made landmarks – think the Eiffel Tower, the Palace of Versailles and the Pont du Gard – but the landscape has just as much to offer. From the towering Alps to the otherworldly salt flats of Camargue, France is a bounty of natural wonders just waiting to be discovered.France has ample land area to provide habitat for a wide variety of plants and animals. More than 25 percent of its territory is covered with forest, and another 50 percent is countryside or farmland.Lowland forests are home to deer and wild boar, while the woodlands of the Alps and Pyrenees provide refuge for rare chamois antelope, ibex, brown bears, and alpine hares, among many other species. The Mediterranean coastline is a stopover of millions of migrating African birds, including flamingos, vultures, egrets, and bee-eaters.The French government has made a broad commitment to preserving open spaces and the wildlife they contain. About 10 percent of the country has been set aside as national or regional parklands and nature reserves.
