A few years ago, I was in the courtyard of a famous castle in the Loire Valley in France. It was just after the COVID-19 pandemic had ended. There were still a lot of cases, and travel was not the time to go, but the Loire Valley was close to my home, so it was a good time to start returning to normal life.
I imagine it’s now very crowded with tourists from all over the world. I lost two family members of my friends during the COVID-19 pandemic. While I’m grateful to finally be back in the world, I don’t want to forget that there are still people I know who feel unsafe.

Covid was an unforgettable experience for all of us. The place looks so grand.
‘unforgettable’, yes indeed, and I love your wording. I don’t want to say it was ‘bad’ experience. It should be unbearable, tough and sometimes sad moment but I could say just it was unforgettable, as you mentioned.
