explanation: Located in northwest of Paris on Normandy coast, Deauville had been a tiny village until 1858 when Duc de Morny, a half-brother of Napoleon III, visited his doctor's cottage. Well informed businessman, he realized the value of this swampy land but close to Paris, so quickly transformed to a modern summer resort. Organizing an American film festival and an Asian film festival each year, Deauville is considered as the queen of Normandy summer resorts and in 2 hours from Paris Saint-Lazare railroad station.
