They built all those buildings on an island of granite rock, not just on sand. But yeah, it's still took a massive amount of terraforming to make this work.
In Europe we historically do a lot of amazing things for realing dumb reasons.

You got me. So sad that's not a real community.
As people do in muhrica and basically all over the world.
Amazing in good and bad ways
I love how you take issue with this, but the skull hole burning is fine.
I mean, the angel skull hole burning didn't really happen... Probably.
Doesn't prove much considering most catholic relics are fabricated.
skull hole what?😲
He was asking for it, should've just build the freaking church for that flying abomination of God.
big ol sandcastle
have the gaul

Wow I thought that was a CG image. What a cool place.
It's insane in person. 100% worth visiting if you're ever considering going to France
If you read the stories of cultures & religions that came before Christianity, you’ll realize the Christian stories are straight up boring.
It got built but it can still be considered a fat middle finger.
When that thing was built, it was probably in between nowhere and who knows. Getting there would not be a leisurely travel.
In true British style, trying not to be outdone by the French, we built our own on the other side of the English Channel, and no one got a hole burnt in their heads nor nuffin else like that. I give you, Staint Michael's Mount. https://www.bing.com/images/search?view=detailV2&ccid=27PJUnX7&id=19739A38393B041DE09F4652C204F62A51AA4BD8&thid=OIP.27PJUnX7HqRmPffE2DCw_QHaE6&mediaurl=https%3A%2F%2Fwww.roger-pearse.com%2Fweblog%2Fwp-content%2Fuploads%2F2021%2F05%2FSt-Michaels-Mount-Cornwall-1-scaled.jpg&cdnurl=https%3A%2F%2Fth.bing.com%2Fth%2Fid%2FR.dbb3c95275fb1ea4663df7c4d830b0fd%3Frik%3D2EuqUSr2BMJSRg%26pid%3DImgRaw%26r%3D0&exph=1700&expw=2560&q=st+Michael%27s+mount&simid=608000269688006678&form=IRPRST&ck=62D0BC485FEFACCD45AC51C97E4B2765&selectedindex=1&pc=EMMX01&ajaxhist=0&ajaxserp=0&vt=4&sim=11
