The Cloister of Saint Wandrille Abbey, France

I am always drawn to the cloisters of monasteries and abbeys.
This is the part that allows walking outside even in bad weather.
It is an area around a garden for walking and prayer.
My favorite is The Iona Abbey on the isle. But this one in France is interesting in that it was more closed and leads to the chapel where we experienced a program of Georgian chants. 
This abbey is one of the oldest ecclesiastical structures in France.
